Homemade Oatmeal Peanut Butter Protein Bars

Oatmeal Peanut Butter Protein Bars
  • 2 cups Uncooked Old Fashioned/Quick Oats
  • 1/2 cup Natural Peanut Butter
  • 4 Scoops Protein Powder (I used ON Whey Vanilla Ice Cream)
  • 4 tbls Milled Flax Seed
  • 1/2 cup water
I warmed up my PB in the microwave for a few seconds to get it loose but other than that just combine everything in a bowl and mix well.
Then press it into a baking pan or other square dish and put in the fridge or freezer for about a half hour. You can put a little water on your fingers before pressing so it doesn’t stick to you. Take the pan out of the freezer, cut the mixture into 8 or more bars, and wrap each individually or put in snack bags. Done!
I’m leaving mine in the freezer since they were still a little sticky but the fridge is fine as well.
Next time I may add some dried fruit to change it up some.
This recipe makes about 8 bars
