How to Make Ashton S Energy Bars

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, combine rolled oats, peanut butter, honey, maple syrup, chocolate chips, chopped nuts, vanilla extract, and salt.
  3. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are evenly distributed.
  4. Press the mixture firmly into the prepared baking pan.
  5. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the bars are set.
  6. Let the bars cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares.
  7. Once cooled, lift the bars out of the pan using the parchment paper and cut into your desired size. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
