PEANUT BUTTER OATMEAL PROTEIN BARS

Tasty bars that pack a bunch of protein into a tiny yet satisfying bar. Great for recovery from a workout, a quick breakfast or snack, or on a hike. Easy to make gluten-free by using GF oats and oat flour. If you don't have oat flour, try pulverizing 50g of rolled oats in a food processor until they form a coarse flour consistency - works just as well.
