Line and 8x8 baking pan with parchment paper. Set aside.
Add oats to a high speed blender and blend until the oats have turned into flour.
In a large bowl, add oat flour, protein powder and crispy rice cereal.
In a small saucepan add peanut butter, honey and coconut oil. Melt together over medium/low heat and stir until combined, then add vanilla extract.
Pour peanut butter/honey into dry ingredients and stir. Pour mixture into your prepared pan and press firmly into the bottom until spread evenly.
Melt chocolate chips in the microwave. If the chocolate is too thick to drizzle, you can add 1 tsp of melted coconut oil to thin it out. Drizzle on top of your bars.
