Instructions

  1. Grind your oats, flax seeds, walnuts, and peanuts to a fine consistence.
  2. Place the ground ingredients together into a mixing bowl.
  3. Grind the shredded coconut with the coconut oil and add it to the dried ingredients.
  4. Add the almond flour and milk powder to the mixture.
  5. Grind the raisins. It will turn into a sticky mass. Keep aside.
  6. Remove the seed core from the dates and grind those as well.
  7. Add the ground raisin and dates to the other mixed ingredients, and crumble the dried fruits with your hands into the other dry ingredients so that they get properly incorporated.
  8. To finish the mass, mix your honey into the warm water and pour it all over the whole mass. Mix it properly!
  9. Preheat your oven to 320 Fahrenheit/ 160 Celsius.
  10. Now grab your baking dish, preferably a square or rectangular one (I didn't have a square one at the time as you can see) to make your life easier, and grease it with the Coconut Oil.
  11. Spread your mass equally into the mold and flatten it at the top by pressing down. The mass should be pressed down and without any air pockets.
  12. Bake at 320 Fahrenheit/ 160 Celsius for about 20 minutes uncovered. The protein bar mass is done when it is still soft and not too dry. *see Notes
  13. Keep it to cool and then cut your bars into your desired size. Store in an airtight container.

Notes

  • I haven't provided cup measurements for this recipe because it's a baking recipe, and you need to measure out the ingredients properly to get the consistency right. Cups hardly ever result in a consistent texture in this recipe. I have tried it out for you a few times, so that you don't have to.
  • *If you bake your protein bar mass as per my instructions, your bars will result in a soft semi chewy and not too dry consistency. You can bake them longer and your bars will turn out much drier, but they will also store for much longer that way. In conclusion, the longer you bake them, the longer your homemade protein bars will remain good, but they will also be much drier and they will crumble.
