Homemade Protein Bars Recipe
These homemade protein bars are simple to make with just 8 ingredients, and each one is packed with a whopping 12 grams of protein!
Ingredients
- ⅓ cup chocolate protein powder or vanilla protein powder
- 1½ cups nut butter
- ⅓ cup honey
- 3 tablespoons Flaxseed ground
- ⅓ cup rolled oats
- ½ cup chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
- ¼ cup almonds sliced
Instructions
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine the protein powder, nut butter, honey, flaxseed, and rolled oats. Mix until fully combined. Mixture should appear crumbly but hold together when squeezed.
- Line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper. Pour the nut butter mixture into the prepared pan and press down firmly with your hands.
- Melt the chocolate chips and coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl. Drizzle the melted chocolate over the top of the bars and sprinkle with sliced almonds.
- Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before slicing into 10 bars.
Notes
- Storage: Store chocolate almond protein bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
