Step-by-Step Instructions for Chocolate Peanut Butter Bars
  1. Start by lining an 8x8 inch square pan with parchment paper, allowing some overhang for easy removal later.
  2. In a saucepan over low heat, combine 1 cup of natural peanut butter with 1/3 cup of maple syrup. Stir gently for about 2 minutes until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
  3. Transfer the peanut butter and oat flour mixture into the prepared pan, using a spatula to spread it into an even layer.
  4. Clean the saucepan and set it back on low heat. Add 1 cup of chocolate chips along with 2 tablespoons of coconut oil. Stir continuously for about 2-3 minutes until the chocolate is completely melted and glossy.
  5. Place your pan in the refrigerator and allow the bars to set for 2-3 hours, or ideally overnight.
  6. Once the bars are fully set, take them out of the refrigerator and let them sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes before slicing.
