Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 cup creamy natural peanut butter
  • ⅔ cup honey
  • ½ cup mini chocolate chips
  • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt

Method
 

  1. In a saucepan over low heat, stir together the peanut butter, honey, and salt until smooth and warm, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat.
  2. Fold in the rolled oats until fully coated, then gently stir in the mini chocolate chips for about 30 seconds.
  3. Press the mixture firmly into an 8-inch square parchment-lined pan. Chill for at least 1 hour until firm.
  4. Lift out the slab, cut into 16 squares, and serve.

Notes

The 1-hour chill time is not included in the prep time. For the cleanest bars, keep them refrigerated and take them out just a few minutes before eating. A standard 8-inch pan yields 16 bars.
