Ingredients:
• 1 cup oats
• 8 stoned dates, cut in half
• ¾ cup creamy peanut butter
• 3 tablespoons chia seeds
• Pinch of salt
• 1/3 cup almond milk
• ½ vanilla protein powder
• 1/3 cup mini chocolate chips (optional)
Method:
- Add peanut butter, dates, and oats to a food processor, pulsing until the ingredients break down.
- Add the chia seeds, protein powder, and almond milk.
- Pulse until thoroughly combined. Transfer the dough to a mixing bowl and stir in the chocolate chips if you want to add the chocolaty touch. The mix should resemble the cookie dough.
- Press the dough into a tray lined with waxed paper and let firm up in the refrigerator.
- Slice into bars of desired size.
You can always add more peanut butter and/or almond milk to adjust stickiness. Also, if you don’t want to use peanut butter you can always use sunflower seed butter.
