The ingredients for Shan's Protein Oat Bars are:

4 cups large flake oatmeal (you can use 2 cup quick oats and 2 cups large flake oatmeal if you wish-if you do this, grind the quick oats not the large flake oatmeal)
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
1/2 tsp sea salt
2 tbsp honey
4 tbsp splenda brown sugar blend
2-3 tbsp water
1 tbsp vanilla extract
1/2 cup salted butter
2 cups unflavoured protein powder
1/4 cup ground flax seeds
1/8 cup ground chia seeds
2 tbsp real maple syrup
2 tbsp vanilla flavoured agave nectar

Here is how you make Shan's Protein Oat Bars:

In a blender, take 1/2 of the oatmeal and grind it fine. Leave the remaining large flake oatmeal as whole flakes. All dry ingredients are mixed together, butter is melted on low heat along approx 2-3 minutes with all the sugars and water. Pour melted butter mixture into dry mixture and blend well by hand. Distribute mixture into a large shallow cake pan (or two smaller pans 9x4" or so) lightly greased with butter or non-stick spray. Press mixture firmly into pan. Cut into approx 1" x 1" squares. Refridgerate tray approx 1 hour before eating, or wrap and freeze container. Keep oat bars in fridge. If not eating within a few days, these freeze very well and do not take much time to thaw-so pop them into zip lock baggies for a quick on-the-go protein snack. These are a chewy textured protein bar.Serving Size: in a shallow baking pan, makes approx 48 pieces of 1"x 1" Number of Servings: 48Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user TAKINBACKMYBODY.
