cup
all natural nut butter
I used a mix of walnuts, hazelnuts, pecans and almonds
1
cup
water
2
cups
Old Fashioned Rolled Oats*

5
scoops
175g plain whey protein powder (I used Ergogenics New Zealand Pro)
¼
cup
almond meal
¼
cup
coconut flour
¼
cup
unsweetened shredded coconut
½
cup
raw cacao nibs
1
tbsp
ground cinnamon
1
tsp
pure vanilla extract
½
tsp
Himalayan Salt
Instructions
Grind one cup of rolled oats in the food processor and set aside.
If you are making your own almond meal from slivered almonds, make that now also while your bowl is still dry and clean...
Add nut butter and water to your food processor and process until well blended.
Add oats flour, coconut flour, almond meal, whey protein, cinnamon, vanilla and salt and process until well incorporated.
Add whole oats, shredded coconut and cacao nibs and process until just blended.
Transfer to a 8" x 8" pan that's been lined with parchment paper.
Press the mixture down firmly with a wet rubber spatula until it's all nice and flat, then cover and refrigerate overnight.
Cut into 12 bars and keep refrigerated for up to a week in an airtight container.
