INGREDIENTS:
3/4 cup smooth peanut butter
1/3 cup honey (or maple syrup)
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 cups old fashioned oats
1/2 cup protein powder of your choice (preferably a neutral flavour like vanilla - we used almond protein by Amino Animo

pinch salt

METHOD:
Add peanut butter, honey, and olive oil in a heatproof bowl. Melt everything over a bain-marie (medium-high heat). Stir until combined and smooth. Let aside.
Mix the oats with the protein powder, flaxseed, cinnamon, and salt in a large bowl. Stir in the peanut butter mixture and combine all ingredients together.
If the dough is warm let it cool in the fridge for a few minutes before adding in the chocolate to prevent it from melting.
Add in the chopped chocolate and combine.
Line a pan with baking sheet.
Add the dough to the pan and press lightly to create an even surface.
