½ cup brown rice syrup

1. Grease a 9-inch by 9-inch pan or glass pyrex with coconut oil or line it with parchment paper. Set aside.
2. In a medium sized bowl, mix together melted peanut butter, brown rice syrup, protein powder and vanilla until it forms a dough consistency.
3. Add brown rice crisps to your peanut butter mixture. Use your (clean) hands to gently fold the rice crisps into the mixture. Then, put the mixture into the pan.
4. Using a spatula, spread mixture out evenly and press into pan so the bars are nice and tight OR roll into balls and place along the pan. 
5. Place into your fridge for about 20-30 minutes.
6. Use a sharp knife to cut into squares before serving. 
7. Enjoy!
