Start by measuring out the peanut butter, raisins (or similar fruit) and honey into a stainless steel mixing bowl. Fill a pot big enough to house the mixing bowl with an inch or two of water for the stove at medium heat. Place the mixing bowl into the pot and stir as the bowl begins to heat up from the simmering water beneath. Add the chocolate chips when the honey and peanut butter are melted and mix well. As you constantly stir, use oven mitts to pinch the pot and bowl together for added stability (pro tip: don’t burn yourself).  

After the chocolate chips are melted, turn the stove to low and add the chia seeds, mix well, then add the protein powder and oatmeal. Now that everything is mixed well, I used a bread pan as a mold to house my bars. You can use whatever you wish, but just note, the nutrition label is only meant for 16 bars per batch. Place the pan into the fridge for 30-40 minutes until cool. Flip the pan over to use gravity and cut the it into bars. Enjoy!
