Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, protein powder, and chia seeds. Stir until evenly distributed.
Step 2
Add the peanut butter, honey, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt to the dry ingredients. Use a large spoon or your hands to mix until a thick dough forms.
Step 3
Fold in the mini chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
Step 4
Line an 8x8-inch baking dish with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
Step 5
Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish and press it firmly into an even layer using the back of a spoon or your hands.
Step 6
Place the dish in the refrigerator and chill for at least 2 hours, or until the bars are firm and easy to cut.
Step 7
Once firm, remove the mixture from the dish and slice it into 12 equal-sized bars.
Step 8
Store the bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks, or freeze for up to 3 months.
