Add oats and process more until finely ground. Add coconut flakes, cinnamon, salt and vanilla extract; process for 30 seconds.

Add peanut butter, maple syrup and water; process until combined. You might have to stop a few times and scrape down the walls.

How your dough should look after processing. Not crumbly, but not 'nut butter' consistency either. If the batter seems too crumbly, you can add a little extra peanut butter.

5.

 In a small saucepan, add chocolate chips and coconut oil; melt over low heat, whisking constantly.

6.

Pour chocolate over dough all around and tilt pan to help melted chocolate coat bars evenly.

7.
