High Protein Bars

davymcvey

I was wondering if anyone had a recipe for protein bars that would give roughly 20grams protein per bar. Most of the recipes I can find are roughly 40 grams of protein over about 12 bars, which ends up a lot of carbs/ calories to get just over 3 grams of protein per bar.

I don’t really have a recipe (I just throw stuff together) but I’ve made no bake oat bars that had close to 20 grams of protein in them because I add nuts and seeds and use peanut butter and protein powder. I’d imagine you could add a scoop of whey protein powder to any recipe you’ve found to bump up the protein amount without really affecting the recipe.

This is what I did last time I made them. 8 servings, 365 cal, 23 fat, 19.5 carb, 18.5 protein. I’d imagine you could take the oats out and add hemp hearts and other chopped nuts to reduce the carbs...
