Instructions

Add oats to a powerful blender and blend until they resemble flour. Transfer to a medium bowl.
Add protein powder, melted coconut oil, maple syrup, vanilla, and salt. Mix until well combined. Gently fold in chocolate chips.
Enjoy immediately. We love it slightly warm right after mixing. It will firm up as it cools.

Notes

Note 1: Use real maple syrup, not pancake syrup. Maple syrup is a non-refined sweetener made from tree sap.

Note 2: If avoiding refined sugars, chop up a chocolate bar instead of using chocolate chips.

Storage: Best eaten right after making. It firms up as it cools. If it's too firm, microwave for a few seconds and add a splash of milk to adjust the texture.
