Preparation
Step 1
OPTIONAL: In a food processor, pulse 1 cup of the oats, your filling, and your fruit for a smoother texture.
Step 2
Combine all oats, filling, and fruit in a large bowl. Line a 9x13 or smaller pan with parchment paper.
Step 3
Melt the peanut butter, butter, and honey over low heat in a small saucepan. Add the chocolate and stir until melted.
Step 4
Pour the chocolate mixture into the bowl with oats, nuts, and dried fruit. Mix quickly to prevent sticking.
Step 5
Press the mixture into the prepared pan, sprinkle with sea salt, and chill for 2-3 hours to harden (use freezer for faster results).
Step 6

Chef's notes
Pulse the oats and filling for a less chunky texture.
Store bars in the freezer for easy access during Chocolate Emergencies.
