These peanut butter puff quinoa bars are an easy-to-make, high-protein treat with a satisfying crunch, similar to rice krispy treats but with the added deliciousness of peanut butter.
1. Add peanut butter, quinoa puffs, vanilla extract, and maple syrup (or honey), and salt to a large bowl and mix until combined.
2. Pour the mix into an 8x8 square dish lined with parchment paper and press down firmly.
3. In a small bowl, combine the dark chocolate chips and coconut oil and melt in the microwave until smooth.
4. Drizzle the melted chocolate mixture over top of the quinoa peanut butter base in the pan and add flaky sea salt.
5. Place the dish in the fridge for 20 minutes or so to set.
6. Remove from the fridge, cut into bars, and enjoy.
