Yield: 10 bars
1 cup peanut butter or other nut or seed butter
½ cup honey
1 cup rolled oats
¼ cup chia seeds
2 Tbsp protein or collagen powder (or additional peanut butter)
½ cup mini chocolate chips
Combine all ingredients into a mixing bowl and mix well.
Form mixture into 1-inch by 3-inch bars. Add slightly more honey or peanut butter to make the batter wetter, or slightly more oats and powder to make the mixture dryer to form into bars.
Place bars in a glass container and chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes before serving. The bars will keep in the refrigerator for about one week or in the freezer for about one month.
