How to Make Homemade Chocolate Peanut Butter Protein Bars
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Chop 1 cup of rolled oats in a food processor or blender until finely ground.
- In a large bowl, combine: 1 cup rolled oats (finely chopped), ½ cup peanut butter, ½ cup cocoa powder, ½ cup honey or maple syrup, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, ¼ cup protein powder (whey or plant-based), and a pinch of salt. Mix thoroughly.
- Grease a 9x9 inch baking dish with cooking oil or coconut oil. Line the bottom with parchment paper or foil, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy removal.
- Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center is slightly firm. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out with moist crumbs.
- Let the bars cool completely in the pan before lifting them out using the foil or parchment paper overhang. Cut into 6 bars.
- Once completely cool, store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
