Start by gathering all ingredients: 2 cups of oatmeal, 5 tablespoons of peanut butter, whey protein powder, and 1/2 cup of almond milk.

Measure 2 cups of oatmeal using a food scale, which should weigh about 160 g.

Add the whey protein powder to the mixing bowl, weighing approximately 155 g.

Scoop out 5 tablespoons of peanut butter, weighing it to 80 g.

Pour in 1/2 cup of unsweetened almond milk, starting with this amount and adding more as needed.

Stir the mixture with a spoon until combined, checking the consistency.

If the mixture is too thick, gradually add more almond milk until you reach a thick cookie dough-like consistency.

Prepare a baking pan by spraying it with non-stick cooking spray.

Transfer the batter into the baking pan and evenly distribute it.

Flatten the mixture in the pan to prepare for cutting into bars.

Place the pan in the fridge for 4 hours or in the freezer for 30 minutes to set.

After the setting time, remove from the fridge or freezer and cut into bars.
