Chip Bar (in progress)

Next time: do extra honey in place of sugar, add more of peanut butter or honey for stronger binder to help bars stick together a little better. 

2 1/2 cups rolled oats 

1/2 cup flour (or blended oats) or whey

1/4 cup butter

1/3 cup honey 

1/4 cup maple syrup 

1/4 cup peanut butter

1 tsp vanilla

1/4 tsp baking soda

1/4 tsp salt

(I added a small amount of chocolate chips)

Preheat oven to 350. In a bowl, mix together flour and wet ingredients into a paste. Add in remaining dry ingredients and oats. Press mixture firmly down into a 9x9 baking dish lined with parchment. 

Bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown and firm. Immediately remove from oven and press down firmly again. Let cool completely before cutting. They will firm up more as they cool. 

Original recipe can be stored at room temp for up to a month in an air-tight container. Can also be frozen for up to 3 months.
