• 3.5 tbsp maple syrup
• 2 tbsp oil (optional)

Method

1. In a food processor, combine oats, cashews, flour, ground flaxseed, protein powder (if using), and salt. Blend until you have a fine meal-like consistency.
2. Add vanilla, maple syrup, and oil (if using) to the food processor. Blend until the mixture comes together and forms a dough.
3. Add chocolate chips to the dough and pulse a few times to incorporate the chocolate chips.
