Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups quick oats
  • 1 cup almonds or other nut roughly chopped.
  • 1 tsp. cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 2 tbsp coconut oil
  • 3/4 cup creamy natural peanut butter (any nut butter will work)
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1 tsp. vanilla
  • 2/3 cup chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup raisins

Method
 

  1. Line an 8x8 inch baking dish with parchment paper.
  2. Combine oats, almonds, cinnamon, and salt in a bowl - stir to combine.
  3. In small saucepan, combine coconut oil, peanut butter, honey, and vanilla until warmed through and coconut oil has melted.
  4. Add wet ingredients to dry and stir to combine. Let mixture rest for 30 minutes before adding chocolate chips so they don't melt. Then add chocolate and raisins.
  5. Pour mixture into prepared baking dish and press down firmly with bottom of spatula.
  6. Cover and refrigerate least 2 hours or overnight, I prefer overnight! Use a knife to cut into desired sizes.
  7. Keep them in the fridge or freezer.
