Base Ingredients
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter This is the star of the show! It adds creaminess and a rich peanut flavor.
- 1 cup honey Acts as a natural sweetener and helps bind the ingredients together.
- 2 cups rolled oats Provides a hearty base and adds fiber to the bars.
- 1 cup chocolate chips Adds a sweet, melty chocolate layer on top.
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract Enhances the overall flavor profile.
- 1/4 teaspoon salt Balances the sweetness and brings out the flavors.
Gather your ingredients: creamy peanut butter, honey, rolled oats, chocolate chips, vanilla extract, and salt.
In a medium saucepan, combine the creamy peanut butter and honey. Place over low heat and stir until melted and blended, about 3.
In a large mixing bowl, add the rolled oats. Pour the warm peanut butter mixture over the oats and mix until fully coated. Press the mixture into an 8x8-inch baking dish lined with parchment paper.
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth. Pour the chocolate over the pressed oat mixture and spread evenly.
Chill the baking dish in the refrigerator for at least 120 to set. Once set, lift out using the parchment paper and cut into squares.
