Ingredients

1½ cups Rolled Oats, Organic

½ cup cashew butter

½ cup raisins

½ cup Whey Protein, Creamy Vanilla Powder

¼ cup + 1 tablespoon almond milk

1 tablespoon Manuka Honey

1 teaspoon cinnamon

pinch salt

Directions

Add the oats, cashew butter, raisins, protein powder, almond milk, honey, cinnamon, and salt to a medium sized mixing bowl. Mix well to combine. The batter should be a little sticky. If too wet, add a little more oats or protein powder. If too dry, add a little more almond milk.
Line an 8x8 glass baking dish (or something similar) with parchment paper (this makes for easy removal) and press mixture into the bottom of the pan until evenly distributed. Place them in the fridge for 30 minutes to firm up. Cut into 8 equal sized bars and enjoy! Store in the fridge for up to a week.
