Cook Mode

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results

In a large bowl, combine SunButter, protein powder, maple syrup, and salt. Mix until a thick dough texture is formed.
Press the mixture into an 8x4-inch loaf pan lined with parchment paper.
To make the chocolate layer, add chocolate chips and coconut oil to a small microwave-safe bowl. Heat in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until completely melted. Pour the melted chocolate over the SunButter layer and spread evenly. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt if desired.
Place in the fridge for 1 hour before slicing into 8 bars or squares. Enjoy!

Notes

Storage: Store protein bars in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
