Prep Time: 10 minutes | Chill Time: 30 minutes | Total Time: 40 minutes | Servings: 10 bars | Author: Aleda | Category: Dessert

Ingredients:

• ¾ cup (192g) creamy natural peanut butter (peanuts + a pinch of salt only)
• ¼ cup (84g) honey (or coconut palm syrup for a vegan version)
• 1 tablespoon coconut oil, melted
• 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• ⅓ cup (40g) flaxseed meal
• ½ cup (40g) protein powder, vanilla or plain
• 2.5 ounces of 85% dark chocolate (or your favorite dark chocolate)
• Coarse sea salt, for sprinkling

Instructions:

1. In a medium mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, honey, melted coconut oil, and vanilla. Stir until smooth and creamy.
2. Add the flaxseed meal and protein powder, stirring with a spoon until it gets tough to mix. Then, gently knead with clean hands until fully combined—think cookie dough consistency.
3. Line an 8x4-inch pan with parchment paper and press the mixture evenly into the bottom.
4. For the chocolate topping, melt the dark chocolate in a small saucepan over low heat until silky smooth. Pour it over the peanut butter layer, tilting the pan to coat evenly.
5. Chill in the refrigerator for 30–60 minutes until set. Slice into 10 bars or squares (squares work best for easy snacking).
6. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to two weeks.
