  • 1/2 cup peanut butter
  • 1 tsp. vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp. salt

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350℉ and line an 8x8 pan with parchment paper. You can also use a small baking try with a lip.
  • In a large bowl add oats, salt, and any extras you'll like to add in such as mixed nuts or dried fruit.
  • In a saucepan over low heat, melt peanut butter and honey together. Stir in vanilla extract.
