4 and 1/2 cups rolled oats

1 tsp baking soda
2 tsp vanilla
1 cup soft coconut oil
2/3-3/4 cup honey
1 cup raw shredded coconut
Optional add-ins
White Chocolate chips
Mini chocolate chips
Chopped Brazil nuts
Sunflower seeds
Chopped Almonds
Dried Fruit
Protein Powder
Preheat oven to 350
Grease 9 x 13 pan
(I use this amazing extra large non stick baking sheet that I got at Kohl's)
In a large mixing bowl combine coconut oil and honey
Add in all additional ingredients and stir thoroughly
Press mix firmly into greased pan
(I add a little honey here and there to press any dry spots together)
Bake for 15 minutes if in a 9 x 13
Bake for 8 minutes if you use a shallower pan
Let cool
Shillawna cuts hers into bars, wraps in plastic wrap and stores in fridge
I cut mine into squares and store in tupperware.
Enjoy! Be careful, you might want to eat the whole pan yourself!!
