No Bake Honey & Oat Peanut Butter Bars

This past Wednesday night we had our first  Hypnobirthing class! Our instructor Debbie is everything we would want in a birthing coach. She's also a labor companion/doula and certified in Clinical Hypno Therapy. We'll be attending her class, with three other couples, for three hours every Wednesday night for the next month. She provides a healthy, high protein snack for us half way through class and here is the recipe for what she brought this past week. She shared the recipe with all of us and I HAD to share it with all of you. Let's just say I'm making a batch this weekend! So yummy!

16 servings (she doubles the recipe so she can keep them in the freezer and nibble on them for months!) A doubled recipe fits on one cookie sheet.

35 mins., 15 prep; 20 minutes freezing time.

1/3 cup think honey (agave nectar would work too)
3/4 cup chunky peanut butter/almond butter of your choice
1 tsp. vanilla- (or 1/2 tsp almond extract and 1/2 vanilla)
1-cup oatmeal (any kind)
3/4 powdered milk
1/4 cup sunflower seeds (shelled)
1/4 cup chocolate chips.

1. Mix all ingredients, except chocolate chips, until well mixed. (If too soft to work with add a little more powdered milk and oats)
2. Add chocolate chips
3. Spread evenly on a cookie sheet
4. Cut into squares
5. Freeze for at least 20 minutes and then store in airtight container. (She keeps them in the freezer always or they get too soggy).

Enjoy!!!
***I'll post a picture of my batch later this weekend.
