Instructions:

1. Mix dry ingredients: In a large bowl, stir together oat flour, almond meal, rolled oats, flaxseed powder, hemp seed powder, chopped pecans, and sea salt.

2. Warm wet ingredients: In a small saucepan over low heat (or microwave in short intervals), gently melt together the peanut butter, honey, and coconut oil until smooth.

3. Combine: Pour the wet mixture over the dry ingredients and mix until evenly combined. Let it cool slightly, then fold in the chocolate chips.
