Equipment
- 8x8-inch baking tray
- Small stovetop pot
- Microwave optional
Ingredients
For the Base & Topping
- 1 cup + 2 tbsp vegan butter melted
- ⅓ cup pure maple syrup
- 3 cups dry rolled oats
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- few pinches pink salt
For the Chocolate Filling
- 1 cup vegan semisweet chocolate chips
- ¼ cup full-fat, canned coconut milk
- coconut flakes, walnut or pecan pieces optional add-ins
Instructions
- Melt butter in a microwave-safe bowl or on the stove, with the wrapping paper removed, in 20-second intervals until fully melted.
- In a large bowl, mix together all ingredients for the oat crumble, including the butter, until it comes together.
- Line an 8x8 square baking pan with parchment paper.
- Press down half of the oatmeal mixture into the bottom of the pan, using a flat spatula to help press it down tightly. Place in the freezer.
- In a small pot over medium-low heat on the stove, melt chocolate chips by adding in the filling ingredients.
- Constantly stir until melted. Then remove the bars from the freezer and pour the melted chocolate evenly over top, using a rubber spatula to smooth it out.
- Take the remaining oat mixture and sprinkle it in an even layer over top of the chocolate filling, gently pressing it down.
- Place the baking dish in the freezer for around 6 hours, until fully set.
