How to Make Espresso Buzz Energy Bars
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease an 8x8-inch square baking pan.
- In a food processor, combine 1 cup rolled oats and all of the flaxseed meal. Pulse until coarsely ground.
- In a large bowl, combine the oat and flax mixture with the remaining 1 cup rolled oats, salt, and chocolate chips. Mix well.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted vegan margarine, brown rice syrup, brown sugar, brewed coffee, and instant espresso powder until the sugar and instant coffee are fully dissolved.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until evenly combined. The mixture will be thick.
- Pour the mixture into the prepared baking pan and use a spatula to spread it evenly.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown and the center is set. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out with a few moist crumbs attached.
- Let the bars cool completely in the pan before lifting them out and slicing into bars. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
