  10 scoop (30g) or 300g

• Cinnamon

  ground

  2 tsp or 5g

• Rolled oats

  dry oatmeal

  2 cup or 160g

• Almond butter

Directions

1. Pulse dry ingredients- In a 7 cup or larger food processor fitted with a steel S blade, add the protein powder, cinnamon and rolled oats. Blend for 1 minute, until oats are powdery and fine, as pictured above.
2. Add wet ingredients- Add melted coconut oil, almond butter, honey and vanilla extract to the food processor. Blend for another 30 seconds, until mixture is well combined.
3. Check consistency- Fold some of the mixture in your hand; it should form a ball and not crumble. If the mixture is crumbly, add water and process again.
4. Press & chill- Line a 9 x 5 inch loaf pan with parchment, and press the protein bar mixture into the pan until smooth across the top. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt, then chill for 2 hours (or freeze for 30 minutes).
5. Slice- Pull the bars out of the loaf pan, and cut into 8 squares.
