Ingredients
- 1 cup natural peanut butter
- ⅓ cup pure maple syrup
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 cup oat flour—don't pack the oat flour!
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- 1 teaspoon coconut oil
Instructions
- Line an 8x8 pan with parchment paper. In a medium bowl, mix the peanut butter and maple syrup together.
- Add the salt and oat flour and mix until well combined. Use your hands if necessary. Press the mixture into the pan in an even layer.
- In a microwave safe bowl, add the chocolate chips and coconut oil. Microwave in 30 second increments until the mixture is smooth. Pour the chocolate mixture over the peanut butter layer and use the back of a spoon to spread it into an even layer.
- Place the pan into the fridge or freezer until the chocolate is hardened. Cut into pieces and top with more sea salt.
Notes
If the bar seems to be too dry, you can try adding a little bit more peanut butter or maple syrup until it reaches the desired consistency/taste.
Make it dairy-free or vegan: use vegan chocolate chips.
Added protein option: Instead of 1 cup of oat flour, you can replace it with ⅔ cup oat flour and ¼ cup protein powder.
