Add your dry ingredients (protein powder thru cinnamon) and mix until combined.
Add some liquid stevia or sweetener of choice, making sure it’s one you like! Don’t throw a bunch of dry stevia in there as it can leave a weird, bitter aftertaste.
Stir in chocolate chips and pour into a parchment lined 9x13 pan. (I like to sprinkle extra chocolate chips over half the pan for the kids!)
Bake at 350 for about 30-35 minutes.
Sprinkle with flake salt and serve warm or cold, with a little butter, almond butter, honey or whipped cream! Or of course plain is great too. Enjoy!
Notes
If you’re not concerned with the macros, by all means, add more chocolate! I sprinkle extra chocolate chips over half the pan for my boys.*I’m using Active Stacks vanilla protein powder (a non-dairy, beef protein powder) and haven’t tried this recipe with any other brands yet.**If you like things sweeter, you might want to add up to ¼- ½ cup maple syrup or sugar! We like them just slightly sweet as written. I like to judge by tasting the batter. I figured my boys could always drizzle with honey, but they loved it plain! … or with a little butter.You can buy your oat flour or simply blend old fashioned oats in a blender or food processor. I use gluten-free oats to keep these gluten free. GF/DF: Just make sure you use gluten free oats, dairy free chocolate chips, and a dairy-free protein powder like this one I suggested!MFP: Lillie Eats and Tells Protein Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Bars
