Healthy homemade protein bars. Very easy and quick. You know what goes in the recipe! My kids love them! Better than store-bought bars and great for after a work-out or as an anytime snack. Store in covered container in the refrigerator.
Ingredients
- 1 cup old-fashioned oats
- ½ cup flaxseed meal
- 1/3 cup raisins
- 1/3 cup dried cranberries
- 1/3 cup vanilla whey protein powder
- ½ cup white chocolate chips
- 1/3 cup honey
- 1/3 cup peanut butter
Directions
Step 1
Line a 13×9-inch baking dish with baking parchment.
Step 2
Mix oats, flaxseed meal, raisins, cranberries, and protein powder together in a small bowl.
Step 3
Combine chocolate chips, honey, and peanut butter together in a microwave-safe bowl; heat in microwave oven, stirring every 30 seconds, until the chocolate chips are nearly melted, 2 to 3 minutes.
Step 4
Stir oats mixture with the chocolate mixture until evenly mixed; spread into prepared baking dish.
Step 5
Refrigerate bars until hardened, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove bars from dish by lifting parchment; cut into squares using a pizza cutter.
Cook’s Note:
Add nuts, coconut, different dried fruits, swap out the white chocolate chips for chocolate chips, swap out the flavor of protein powder… the variations are never ending!
