Instructions
For the Peanut Butter Oatmeal Bars
- Line an 8x8 inch square tin with grease-proof paper.
- Add the peanut butter and maple syrup to a medium saucepan and stir together over medium heat until combined.
- Add the rolled oats and stir through so the oats are completely coated and combined.
- Remove from the heat and transfer the mixture to the lined brownie tin and press down to get it as level as you can. Set aside.
For the Chocolate Topping
- In a microwave or over a double boiler, melt the vegan chocolate and peanut butter together, stirring occasionally to combine. Pour the melted chocolate over the oat mixture and use a spatula or the back of a spoon to level out.
- Allow the slice and chocolate to cool before popping it into the fridge for at least 30 minutes. Slice in to bars or squares to serve.
