Ingredients
  

  • 1 3/4 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 3/4 cup almond butter
  • 1 ripe banana mashed
  • 1/3 cup honey or maple syrup
  • Pinch salt
  • ½ cup ground flax seed
  • 3/4 cup chocolate protein powder
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened coconut flakes
  • 1/4 cup almonds toasted
  • 1/4 cup sesame seeds
  • 3 Tbsp mini chocolate chips optional

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 300.
  • Mix oats, almond butter, banana, maple syrup, salt, flax seed, protein powder and extract in a medium bowl.
  • Fold in coconut, almonds and sesame seeds until combined. The mix should be soft (like a pasta dough), not dry. If it's dry, add water or maple syrup. If it's too wet, add more oats or flaxseed.
  • Press very firmly into an 8×8 inch pan lined with parchment paper.
  • Bake at 300 for 30 minutes. Let cool, and enjoy!
