These energy bars can be eaten at room temperature, but store best in the fridge. Enjoy a couple for a quick breakfast or post-workout snack or to replace that pricey granola bar!
Ingredients
- ¼ cup peanut butter
- ¼ cup honey or agave nectar
- 1 cup dry rolled oats
- ½ cup sliced nuts & ground seeds (sliced almonds, flax meal, chia seeds)
- 2 tablespoon mini chocolate chips
- ¼ cup ground unsweetened coconut flakes
Directions
- Melt peanut butter and honey or agave nectar in the microwave for 30 seconds.
