Ingredients
  

1 cup rolled oats

1 cup protein powder (vanilla or unflavored)

1/2 cup almond butter (or any nut butter of your choice)

1/4 cup honey or maple syrup

1/2 cup fresh or frozen blueberries

1/4 cup almond milk (adjust for consistency)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon salt

Optional: 1/4 cup chopped nuts or seeds (for added crunch)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Base: In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, protein powder, ground cinnamon, and salt. Mix well to ensure the dry ingredients are evenly dispersed.

    Blend the Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, stir together the almond butter, honey or maple syrup, almond milk, and vanilla extract until smooth and well-combined.

      Combine Wet and Dry: Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, and stir until fully combined. The mixture should be thick and slightly sticky. If it’s too dry, add a little more almond milk.

        Add Blueberries: Gently fold in the blueberries, being careful not to crush them too much if using fresh. If you're using frozen blueberries, allow them to thaw and drain excess moisture before adding.

          Add Crunch (optional): If desired, fold in the chopped nuts or seeds for an extra crunch.

            Press into a Pan: Line an 8x8 inch (20x20 cm) square baking dish with parchment paper. Transfer the mixture into the dish and press it down firmly and evenly with the back of a spatula or your hands.

              Set the Bars: Cover the dish with plastic wrap or foil and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until the bars have firmed up.

                Cut and Serve: Once set, lift the mixture out of the pan using the parchment paper. Cut into bars or squares and serve!

                  Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week, or freeze for longer storage.
