Ingredients
  

Oat Base

  • cup peanut butter
  • ¾ cup old fashioned rolled oats
  • 2 tablespoon maple syrup

Instructions
 

Preparation Steps

  • In a bowl, mix together the peanut butter and maple syrup.
  • Next, add in the oats and mix until well combined.
  • Add the oat mixture to the silicon molds and press down with a spoon until it's even.
  • Add a dollop of peanut butter on top of each oat cup, or mix together the protein powder and peanut butter and spread that on top of each one. Freeze for 20 minutes.
  • In the meantime, melt the dark chocolate in the microwave with about 2 teaspoon of oil. Microwave in 30 second increments, stirring well in between each round.
  • When ready, add the melted chocolate to the tops of each oat cup and freeze for about 20 more minutes.
  • Remove from liners, sprinkle with flakey sea salt and enjoy!

Notes

Use silicon liners for best results. If using creamy, runny peanut butter then the freezing time will be longer. Melt the dark chocolate in the microwave with a touch of oil and microwave in 30 second increments, stirring well in between each round.
