Description
Let’s make this personal. This recipe is for one hearty, satisfying protein bar—perfect for portion control or when you’re experimenting with flavors.
Ingredients
-
1 scoop (about 25g) protein powder – whey, casein, or vegan
-
1 tbsp nut butter – almond, peanut, or cashew
-
1 tbsp honey or maple syrup
-
1 tbsp rolled oats
-
1 tsp chia seeds or flax seeds (optional for fiber)
-
1 tbsp almond milk or water – adjust to consistency
-
A pinch of sea salt
-
Add-ins (optional): dark chocolate chips, shredded coconut, dried berries
Instructions
In a mixing bowl, combine protein powder, oats, and seeds. Stir well to distribute everything evenly.
Add nut butter, honey (or maple syrup), and a splash of almond milk. Mix with a fork or your hands until a thick dough forms. If it’s too dry, add another teaspoon of liquid.
Fold in any extras you love—think crushed nuts for crunch or cacao nibs for a chocolate hit.
Press the dough into a small rectangular shape on a piece of parchment paper. Wrap it up and place it in the fridge for at least 20 minutes to set.
If you’re feeling indulgent, dip one half of the bar into melted dark chocolate. Refrigerate again until firm.
