1 1/2 cup rolled oats, blended into flour
1/2 cup protein powder (check if it’s sweetened)
1/2 cup rice cereal
1/4-1/2 teaspoon sea salt, season to taste
1/2 cup nut butter (almond or peanut)
1/2 cup maple syrup (if protein is unsweetened. If it is, add 1/4-1/2 cup almond milk instead)
1 teaspoon vanilla
3 Tablespoon dark chocolate chips
1/2 Tablespoon coconut oil

Mix oat flour, protein powder, salt and rice crispies in large bowl.
Add nut butter, syrup/milk, vanilla. Stir to combine. It should be cookie dough consistency. Add splash of milk as needed.
Press into 8 X 8 inch pan lined with parchment. Use pastry roller to smooth. Freeze 5-10 minutes.
Melt chocolate and coconut oil in small pot over low heat. When half of the chips are melted, remove from heat and stir until smooth.
Remove 8 X 8 inch pan from freezer and slice into bars. Drizzle with chocolate and freeze again until set. Store in freezer.

Today I made a batch that I rolled into balls then placed each ball into a mini muffin tin in the freezer. Much easier to do this and much easier for eating on the go! Also skipped the chocolate and found them still delicious.
