Yöntemler

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together peanut butter, maple syrup and vanilla extract until smooth.

Add flax seed, protein powder and sea salt. Stir well. You may need to use your hands to ensure the mixture is fully combined. *note: if you are having trouble combining the mixture, this may be a sign your peanut butter was not runny enough- add 1-2 tbsp of water.

Press the mixture evenly into a parchment paper lined 9x5 inch loaf pan.

To melt chocolate- add chocolate chips and coconut oil to a microwave safe bowl. Microwave in increments of 15-30 seconds, stirring in between until melted (this should take a total of 1 minute 15 seconds. Pour the chocolate in an even layer over the top of the protein mixture. Place in the freezer to set for about 30 minutes.

Slice into 10-12 equal sized bars, sprinkle with flakey sea salt. Store in the fridge or freezer and enjoy!
