Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 2 cups rolled oats
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • Pinch of salt

Method
 

  1. Line an 8-inch square pan with parchment paper. In a saucepan, warm the peanut butter, honey, and salt over low heat, stirring for about 2 minutes until smooth.
  2. Remove from heat and stir in the oats until fully coated. Press the mixture firmly into the prepared pan.
  3. Melt the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 20-second bursts, stirring between, until smooth. Spread over the oat base.
  4. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour until firm. Lift out, slice into 16 squares, and serve.

Notes

The 1-hour chill time is not part of the prep time listed above. For the cleanest slices, let the bars sit at room temperature for 5 minutes before cutting so the chocolate softens just enough not to crack wildly under the knife.
