Ingredients:
2 cups rolled oats (gluten-free, if necessary)
1 cup nut butter of your choice (e.g., almond butter, peanut butter)
1/2 cup maple syrup
1/4 cup Zen Basil Seeds
Instructions:
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, nut butter, maple syrup, and Zen Basil Seeds. Stir well until all the ingredients are evenly mixed and the oats are fully coated.
Line a baking dish or tray with parchment paper. The size of the dish will depend on how thick you want your breakfast bars to be. An 8x8 inch square dish works well for thicker bars, while a larger dish will result in thinner bars.
Transfer the oat mixture into the lined baking dish. Use a spatula or your hands to press the mixture firmly and evenly into the dish, smoothing out the top.
Place the baking dish in the refrigerator and let the mixture set for at least 15-30 minutes. This will allow the bars to firm up without the need for baking.
Once the bars have set, remove them from the refrigerator and use a sharp knife to cut them into individual bars or squares.
Store the oat breakfast bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. You can also wrap individual bars in parchment paper or plastic wrap for easy grab-and-go breakfasts or snacks.
Enjoy your fiber-rich oat breakfast bars straight from the fridge whenever you need a quick and nutritious boost of energy!
