Oatmeal Raisin Protein Bars
Description
The bars start by combining dry ingredients of rolled oats, almond flour, vanilla protein powder, chia seeds, cinnamon, and salt. Wet ingredients consist of almond milk, unsweetened applesauce, honey, egg whites, and vanilla extract. Stirring wet into dry yields a thick batter, to which seedless raisins are gently folded in. The mixture bakes in a greased or parchment-lined 8x8 inch dish for just under half an hour until the top begins to brown and a toothpick tests clean.
After baking, the bars cool before a drizzle of coconut butter is added, imparting richness and subtle coconut flavor. The texture is chewy yet firm enough to hold shape, with a balance of wholesome grains, protein, and natural sweetness.
These bars store well refrigerated for up to one week, making them convenient for preparing snacks ahead. The recipe draws inspiration from a known source while providing simple homemade nutrition bars customized with cinnamon and raisins.
