    Ingredients:

    5 tbsp natural peanut butter (chunky or smooth)
    1/2 cup dry oats or whole grain hot cereal (uncooked)
    1/2 cup oat flour * (double the oats if you do not have oat flour)
    6 scoops chocolate whey protein
    1 tsp vanilla
    2 tbsp flax seeds
    1 cup non-fat dry milk
    1/2 cup water (depending on what type of protein you use, you may need more)

    Preparation:

    Coat an 8x8 baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.
    Combine dry ingredients in a medium size bowl and mix well. Add peanut butter and mix - the mixture will be crumbly and dry. Add water & vanilla.
    Using a wooden spoon or rubber spatula, everything until a dough forms. The dough will be sticky. Spread dough into pan using a clean wooden spoon or spatula that has been sprayed with non-stick cooking spray.
    Refrigerate a few hours (or freeze for an hour) and cut into 9 squares. Wrap bars individually (use sandwich bags or plastic wrap) or store in covered container between sheets of wax paper. Keep refrigerated.
