Напрямки

Line a 9-inch x 6-inch loaf pan with a large piece of parchment paper so it hangs on the sides. This makes it easier to unmold the bar later. Set aside.

In a large mixing bowl, add peanut butter, maple syrup, and vanilla extract.

Stir with a rubber spatula until smooth and creamy.

Stir in the remaining ingredients until it forms a sticky dough.

Press the dough firmly in the prepared pan. I like to press a piece of parchment paper on top of the bar, and press hard with my hands to smoothen the top and pack all the ingredients together. Peel off the piece of parchment paper you used to press the bar.

In a microwave-safe bowl, add the chocolate chips and coconut oil.

Microwave it in 30-second bursts, stirring between each, until fully melted then pour over the bar and spread to fully cover the ingredients with melted chocolate.

Pop the pan in the freezer for 15 minutes to firm up the chocolate shell and the bar.

Remove the bar from the pan and transfer it to a chopping board. Use a sharp knife to cut into bars.
