INGREDIENTS:

200g crunchy or smooth natural peanut butter
60g pure maple syrup or honey
10g (1 tbsp) melted extra virgin coconut oil
1 tsp vanilla extract
30g ground flaxseed
70g vanilla or chocolate protein powder
100g 85% dark chocolate
Sea salt for sprinkling on top

METHOD OF COOKING:

1. In a medium bowl mix together peanut butter, maple syrup/honey, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract together until smooth.
2. Add in ground flaxseed and protein powder.
3. Use a spoon to mix together, then use clean hands to help work the batter together (the batter should be similar to cookie dough – if it’s too dry, add 1/2 tbsp of coconut oil)
4. Press mixture into an 8×4 inch pan lined with baking paper.
5. Melt the dark chocolate and pour over the peanut butter layer, tilting the pan so that the chocolate covers the peanut butter layer entirely.
6. Sprinkle over a little coarse sea salt (optional).
7. Place in the fridge for 1 hour and then slice into 15 squares.
8. Store the squares in an airtight tub in the fridge or freezer until ready to eat. Enjoy!
