Cake Batter Energy Bars


Cake Batter Energy Bars
Ingredients:1 cup rice crispies (brown or white, or certified gf) 
1/2 c packed oat flour (or finely processed oats) 
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
1/4 tsp salt
3 tbsp roasted cashew butter 
5 tbsp agave or honey 
optional: a handful of sprinkles 
optional: replace up to half of the oat flour with your favorite protein powder

Directions:
Combine all dry ingredients and stir well. In a separate (large) bowl, combine wet and stir to form a thin paste. (If your cashew butter is cold, warm it a little for easier mixing.) 
Pour dry into wet (not the other way around), and stir until evenly coated. 
Line a baking dish or tupperware container with a large piece of wax paper and pour the mixture into the dish. Fold the extra paper over the mixture and squish down as hard as you possibly can! Use a heavy object to really press it down. (The mixture will fill a 7×5, or about 2/3 of an 8×8.) 
Stick in the fridge or freezer to harden before cutting into bars. Store in the fridge or freezer. Makes 6 bars.
