This is what I use:

Protein powder (chocolate) 6 scoops
1 cup rolled oats (plus a litte extra 100g total)
1/4 cup cocoa powder

Mix these dry ing together. In separate bowl mix:

5 oz milk (I use 2%)
2 TBS honey
3 TBS peanut butter


Mix wet and dry ing together and press in a wax paper lined 8x8 pan(sprinkle a few oats on bottom and top). put in freezer until set up firm, cut into 8 bars. I keep mine frozen so they don't go bad and it's like having a little frozen treat.

They are about 215 cal 7g fat 23g protein (depending on you own ing of course)

Here are some of Jamie Eason's protein bars for those of you that find it easier to just copy from here instead of the site. (Thought I'd be helpful. Haha!)
Btw, I make my own oat flour by putting old fashioned oats in the food processer and then sifting it a little afterwards. Oat flour goes rancid faster than regular flower so it's cheaper and lasts longer to use old fashioned oats and just make it yourself.

Oh thank you for posting these!!! (yes, this is a bump)

These are the ones I use and my fam loves them... it is a basic protein bar and then you add what ever fruits and nuts to fit your tastes... I also used flax seed meal for half of the eggs (follow directions on box for that, but remember you are only using the egg whites so you might want to cut back on the water) If you think they are too moist add a bit more oatmeal. YUM!

I double the following recipe to make a 9x13 pan

Ingredients:
1cup oats
2 scoops protien powder (I use optimum nutrition)
(I also added 1scoop baking coco because I didnt use chocolate protien powder)
4 egg whites
1 banana mashed or 1/2 cup applesauce
1/4 tsp vannilla
1TBS natural peanut butter ( I used what I had in the fridge... not natural)
Stevia or other sweetner to taste (about 4 packets)
dash of salt
Mix-ins of your choice : carob chips, choc chips, dark choc chunks, dried cherries, dried cranberries, coconut, cashews, peanuts, sunflower seeds, .... anything you can think of
( I used mini semis sweet choc chips, dried cherries, coconut, and cashew pieces)
1. Preheat over to 350 Degrees F and spray an 8x8 baking pan with cooking spray
2. combine dry ingredients and set aside. In a seperate bowl, combine egg whites, mashed banana, vanilla, and peanut butter. Blend well. Pour the wet into the dry and mix well by hand.
3. Pour mixture into pan and bake for 20 minutes or until the edges start to seperate from pan or the tooth pick comes out clean.
4. let cool completely before cutting
5. ENJOY!

Roughly about 23 g of protien, and 250 calories

Do any of you have a recipe that doesn't include whey protein? Lactose intolerance is a _____.
