Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 cups rolled oats
  • 1/4 cup Nopalina flax seed plus fiber OR regular flax seed
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened baking cocoa
  • 2-4 TB. almond flour
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1/2 cup natural peanut butter
  • 2 TB. coconut oil at room temp
  • 1 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips dark if you prefer!

Instructions

  • Line an 8x8 baking dish with parchment paper or foil. Grease lightly with a bit of coconut oil.
  • In a mixing bowl, stir together oats, flax seed, cocoa, almond flour, and salt.
  • In a small sauce pan over medium heat, stir together honey, peanut butter, and coconut oil. Wait until melted, then bring to a boil. Once it starts boiling, cook for 1 minute, constantly stirring so it doesn't burn.
  • Pour liquid mixture over dry mixture and stir until fully combined. Let rest for 1 minute, then stir in mini chocolate chips. Most will melt, so keep some aside for top.
  • Press mixture down in pan. Let cool for a couple minutes, then sprinkle with more mini chocolate chips if desired.
  • Refrigerate for 2 hours, then cut into bars. Store in an airtight container at either room temp or in the fridge. Enjoy!
