Blitz the oats in a nutribullet until smooth. If using flaked almonds, blitz these too until ground. Add to a large bowl and add the salt.
Combine the maple syrup & peanut butter in a microwave proof bowl and microwave for 30 secs x 2 times, stirring in between. Add the milk to this mixture along with the vanilla and whisk until smooth. Pour into the dry ingredients and mix well.
Flatten the mix into your prepared loaf tin (it's ok if it doesn't go to the edges, these bars are nicer slightly thicker).
Melt the chocolate & peanut butter together in a small bowl and pour on top of the peanut mixture.
Set in the fridge for 2-3 hours, slice and enjoy! These will keep fresh in the fridge for 3-4 weeks.
Sprinkle of sea salt on top is an optional extra but I love the flavour!
