The fiber on these is so low in comparison to the Quest bars, that's disappointing. Otherwise, the recipe seems like a decent substitute.0

<<---- The smallest one in the pic is a lemon quest bar.
Made 2 batches, Almond Crunch & Chocolate PB. They are the exact size & weight as a real quest bar. Yes I opened one & measured LOL. Its a bit more chewy in texture and sticks to teeth, could be due to to much liquid (almond milk instead of water). Used ON French Vanilla.
For Almond Crunch used almond butter vs PB as suggested. Think this improved the taste.
Nutrition is not exactly what the real bar has. Almond Crunch: 231 cal / 24 Protein / 11g Fat / 9g Carb / 3g Fiber.... Chocolate PB: 203 cals / cal / 24 Protein / 9g Fat / 6g Carb / 2g Fiber ...
Overall not bad at all taking into consideration how easy it was to make & few ingredients.
Thanks for the post0
