Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1/2 cup natural peanut butter smooth
- 1/3 cup pure maple syrup
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1/2 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
- 1/3 cup roasted almonds roughly chopped
- 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon fine salt
Instructions
Line an 8-inch square pan with parchment, leaving an overhang on two sides.
Warm the peanut butter, maple syrup, and honey in a small saucepan over low heat for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring until glossy and smooth; do not boil.
Mix the oats, coconut, almonds, cinnamon, and salt in a large bowl. Pour in the warm peanut-butter mixture and stir until every dry ingredient is coated.
Press the mixture firmly into the lined pan, smoothing the top. Scatter the chocolate chips over it and press them in lightly.
Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, then lift out and cut into 12 bars with a sharp knife.
