Our teen son no longer needed his huge container of chocolate protein powder. At my husband’s request, I made this power bar recipe. I
t is a good, quick breakfast or cookie alternative.
Ingredients
- cooking spray
- 1 cup rolled oats
- ½ cup whole wheat flour
- 1 scoop chocolate-flavored protein powder
- ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 4 large egg whites
- ¼ cup applesauce
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons peanut butter
- ½ cup chocolate chips
- ¼ cup sunflower seeds
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Spray a 9-inch square baking pan with cooking spray.
Step 2
Stir oats, flour, protein powder, and cinnamon together in a large bowl.
Step 3
Mix egg whites, applesauce, olive oil, and peanut butter together in another bowl. Add to the oat mixture and mix well. Fold in chocolate chips and sunflower seeds; batter will be quite thick. Spread into the prepared pan.
Step 4
Bake in the preheated oven until golden, about 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool, 20 to 30 minutes. Cut into bars.
Cook’s Notes:
One scoop of protein powder seems about right. I have tried to add more, but ended up with a rubbery bar.
