Here's the recipe. Any ideas how I can increase the fiber content?

1Scoop Designer Whey Protein
2T Maca Root powder
2T Chia Seeds
2T Homemade Caramel ( Ultra Easy Recipe below)
2T Cashew butter
1T Coconut oil (refined or virgin)
8 Hazelnuts, toasted, finely chopped

Use a fork to mush all the ingredients together, and divide into 4 portions.
Each serving:
194 cals
8g protein
12g fat
14g carbs
3g fiber

Ultra EASY Homemade Caramel
Simply place a can of sweetened condensed milk into your crock pot (put in the actual unopened can). Add water to cover the can and cook on high for about 5 hours. When you open the can, it will have become caramel. You can then stir in 1Tbs butter and 1/2 tsp vanilla if you like.

    Optionally you can add 1/4C Rice Crispies, if you want more carbs.

    I tried adding 3T (30g) Hemp Hearts (Manitoba Harvest) to the recipe, so the macros per serving changed to:
    236cals... 14g carbs... 15g Fat... 10g Protein... 4g Fiber...8g sugar
