Ingredients

  • ¾ cup rolled oats or pre-made oat flour
  • ¾ cup peanut butter
  • 2 tbsp maple syrup
  • cup dark chocolate chips
  • ½ tsp coconut oil

Instructions

  • Place rolled oats into a blender and blend on high speed for 1-2 minutes, stopping to shake the blender intermittently, until you get a fine oat flour. Set aside.
  • Combine peanut butter and maple syrup in a microwave safe bowl. Microwave on high for 30-60 seconds, checking and stirring every 10-15 seconds, until peanut butter is melted and well combined with maple syrup.
  • In a large bowl, add the peanut butter mixture. Slowly stir in the oat flour.
  • Divide the mixture among 6 lined muffin tins. Using your fingers, press the mixture down into the muffin tins to make a flat top.
  • Microwave dark chocolate chips and coconut oil in a microwave safe bowl for 30-60 seconds, stirring every 10-15 seconds. Pour the melted chocolate mixture evenly on top of each peanut butter muffin.
  • Place the muffin tin in the fridge for at least 2 hours until set. Enjoy!

Notes

Store in the fridge for up to 5 days after making.
If you prefer to, you can substitute a pre-made oat flour instead of making your own. 
These are my favorite dark chocolate chips to use since they have 5 grams of fiber and no added sugars.
