So I just heard about making your own protein bars at home to save on cost as well as to avoid extra additives and perservatives. I went online to look up recipes but got overwhelmed with all the options. I'm looking for a low sugar, high protein, high fiber bar (female freindly). Anyone already using a great recipe they wouldn't mind sharing??

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)0 -
