Notes
*If you do not wish to use protein powder, feel free to completely omit it from the recipe. You may just need to add an extra tablespoon of oats!
*to substitute the coconut oil, feel free to use the same amount of any natural peanut butter as long as it is runny (you want it to still have some natural oils and not the dry part at the bottom of the container!)
