Chocolate Protein Power Bars Recipes

NO BAKE CHOCOLATE PROTEIN BARS

Steps:

• Line an 8 x 8-inch pan or 9 x 4-inch loaf pan with parchment paper and set aside.
• In a large bowl, combine the flours, protein powder and cocoa powder and mix well. Set aside.
• In a microwave safe bowl or stovetop, combine the peanut butter and maple syrup and heat until melted. Pour the wet mixture into the dry and mix well. If the batter is too thick, slowly add milk, one tablespoon at a time, until thick.
• Transfer to lined baking dish and press firmly into place. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, before drizzling with chocolate.

PROTEIN BARS

Steps:

• Stir all ingredients except optional chips to form a dough. Either shape into bars with your hands or smooth into a lined 8x8 pan, refrigerate until chilled, then cut into bars. For the optional chocolate coating, spread the melted chocolate over the pan before chilling. (I usually stir 2 tsp oil into the melted chocolate for a smoother sauce, but it's not required.) Or you can dip the bars into the chocolate sauce individually and then chill to set. View Nutrition Facts

HIGH-PROTEIN POWER BARS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Spray a 9-inch square baking pan with cooking spray.
• Stir oats, flour, protein powder, and cinnamon together in a large bowl.
• 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.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden, about 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool, 20 to 30 minutes. Cut into bars.
