Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1/2 cup vanilla whey protein powder
- 2 tbsp honey
- 1/4 cup almond butter
- 1/4 cup dried cranberries
- 1 tbsp chia seeds
- a pinch salt
Instructions
- 1Preheat the oven to 350°F (347°F) for a quick toast, then turn it off before mixing.
- 2In a dry skillet over medium heat, lightly toast the rolled oats for 3‑4 minutes, stirring frequently, until fragrant. Transfer to a large mixing bowl and let cool slightly.
- 3Add the vanilla whey protein powder, chopped dried cranberries, chia seeds, and a pinch of salt to the oats; stir to combine.
- 4In a small microwave‑safe bowl, combine the honey and softened almond butter. Microwave on high for 20‑30 seconds, then stir until smooth and fully blended.
- 5Pour the honey‑almond butter mixture over the dry ingredients. Using a sturdy spoon or spatula, mix thoroughly until the mixture is evenly coated and begins to clump together.
- 6Line a small square pan (about 8×8 inches) with parchment paper. Transfer the mixture into the pan, pressing firmly with the back of a spoon or a piece of parchment to create an even, compact layer.
- 7Refrigerate the pan for at least 30 minutes, or until the bars are firm enough to cut.
- 8Remove from the refrigerator, lift the mixture out using the parchment paper, and cut into 4 equal bars or squares.
- 9Store the bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days, or freeze for longer storage.
