1cupchunky peanut butter,(250g) or creamy
2tsppure vanilla extract
1cupwhole wheat flour,(127g) spoon & leveled
1cupold-fashioned rolled oats,(80g)
1tspBaking Soda
¼tspsalt
½cupmilk,(120ml) I used almond milk, but use whichever you prefer
½cupdairy-free chocolate chips,(90g) or regular chocolate chips
½cupraisins,(70g) or whichever mix-ins you’d like
Preparation
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Line a 8 by 8 baking dish with parchment paper or spray with nonstick spray. Set aside.
With an electric mixer, mix the brown sugar and peanut butter on medium speed until light in color and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
Mix in the vanilla, scraping down the sides as needed.
On medium speed, add in the flour, oats, salt, and baking soda.
The dough will be very thick and clumpy, but it will come together.
Slowly add the milk in a steady stream, mixing until a dough forms. Fold in chocolate chips and raisins.
Use your hands to make sure everything is combined, if needed.
Once dough is completely combined, press it lightly into the prepared baking dish.
Bake for about 17-20 minutes until the bars are lightly golden and set.
Allow to cool completely and cut into squares. Serve.
