Nourishing and Delicious: A Perfect Protein Snack
Packed with 12 grams of protein each, these no-bake protein bars are not only a treat for your taste buds but also a breeze to prepare. Ideal for meal prepping, they’re the perfect snack to keep you energized throughout the week.
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Chill Time: 1 hour
Total Time: 1 hour 10 minutes
Servings: 6
Ingredients:
¼ cup plant-based vanilla protein powder (I prefer Truvani)
1 cup oat flour
¼ teaspoon salt
½ cup creamy natural peanut butter (or almond butter)
¼ cup honey (or maple syrup)
1 tablespoon melted coconut oil (plus more if needed)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2-4 tablespoons chocolate chips (plus extra for topping)
Instructions:
Prepare the Pan: Line a loaf pan with parchment paper and set aside.
Mix Dry Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the plant-based vanilla protein powder, oat flour, and salt.
Combine Ingredients: Add the creamy natural peanut butter, honey, vanilla extract, and melted coconut oil to the dry mixture. The dough will be quite thick, so I recommend mixing with your hands. If the mixture is too dry, gradually add more melted coconut oil or water, one teaspoon at a time.
Add Chocolate Chips: Fold in the chocolate chips with your hands or a spoon.
Press and Top: Press the dough evenly into the prepared loaf pan. Sprinkle additional chocolate chips on top and gently press them in.
Chill: Refrigerate the bars for at least one hour to set.
Serve: Remove from the fridge, cut into 6 equal-sized bars, and enjoy. These bars will stay fresh for about one week in the fridge or up to 3 months in the freezer.
Enjoy your wholesome and satisfying protein bars! Perfect for a quick snack or a post-workout boost.
