Does anyone have a good recipe for protein bars? Ones that don't taste like cardboard.

    The taste of bars varies mainly by the type of protein powder used... I usually buy whey, but for baking, soy seems to give a much better texture.

    I love this muffin recipe:

    • 1 cup wholewheat flour
    • 2 servings protein powder (I bought individual sachets from Wholefoods/Trader Joe's- vanilla Spirutein worked really well!)
    • 1/2 cup applesauce
    • 1 TBSP cinnamon
    • 1.5 TSP baking powder
    • 1.5 TSP baking soda
    • 2 egg whites

    (I added some sweetener and vanilla too)

    Mix all ingredients in 1 bowl. Make sure to break up any clumps that appear. Pour out in muffin tins till 3/4 full. Bake at 350 degrees for about 30 minutes (my oven is crazy and only took 15)

    6 muffins- about 130 calories each and 8-9g protein.


    For bars, great ideas here: http://thegreatbalancingact.com/eats/ !
