Homemade Paleo Protein Bars

These Homemade Paleo Protein Bars combine unflavored egg white protein, coconut flour, almond butter, and honey into a thick dough that cools to a firm yet soft texture. The small dairy-free chocolate chips pressed on top add a touch of sweetness and contrast. Chilled until set, they provide a convenient, high-protein snack with a mild natural sweetness and subtle almond flavor, suitable for those following paleo-inspired diets.

Ingredients

  • 1 1/3 Cup egg white protein unflavored, natural
  • 2/3 Cup coconut flour (70g)
  • sea salt pinch
  • 3/4 Cup almond butter natural
  • 2/3 Cup honey
  • 1 Tbsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 Cup almond milk unsweetened vanilla
  • 2 Tbsp chocolate chips mini, dairy-free

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Line an 8x8 inch pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang to use as a handle to remove the bars. 
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the protein, coconut flour and salt.
  3. In a medium, microwave-safe bowl, melt the the almond butter and honey until smooth, about 1 minute.  Add the vanilla extract and then whisk it all together until creamy.
  4. Add the almond butter mixture into the protein mixture, along with the almond milk.  Mix until well incorporated and you have a somewhat dry, thick dough.  It can be easier to use your hands to mix at the end.
  5. Spread into the prepared pan and place in the fridge for 10 minutes to cool. Then, press in the chocolate chips.
  6. Let refrigerate for at least 1 hour, then slice into bars and DEVOUR!

Notes

  • Ensure the protein powder used contains only egg whites for best results; other protein types may change texture.
  • Store bars in the refrigerator to keep them firm, though they will also hold shape at room temperature temporarily.
