NO-BAKE LOW-CARB PROTEIN BARS



No-Bake Low-Carb Protein Bars image

I have been looking for a protein bar that is not full of carbs. The following is a my own interpretation of a recipe I found online. You could experiment with other ingredients (i.e., other types of protein powder, coco powder, nuts and seeds, etc...). If you come up with other variations, let me know! :)

Time 5m

Yield 6 bars, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 cup flax seed meal (grind whole flax in a coffee grinder)
2 tablespoons coconut flour
2 tablespoons sesame seeds
10 tablespoons protein powder (I use rice)
3 tablespoons carob powder
1/8 teaspoon stevia powder (or to taste)
1/3 cup almond butter
2 tablespoons coconut oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup water (more or less, as necessary)

Steps:

  • 1. Mix all dry ingredients well.
  • 2. Mix together almond butter and coconut oil in a small cup (if the oven is warm (not hot!) I place it in there for a minute to soften it before stiring.
  • 3. Add almond butter and oil to dry ingredients and mix WELL (I actually use my hands to do this). The mixture will be rather dry and crumbly.
  • 4. Add vanilla extract and water (I'd recommend adding water gradually, starting with 1/4 cup, so you don't overdo it) and mix well.
  • 5. Grease a 9x9 pan (or similar size) and press dough into pan. I press for a few minutes with my hand to create a consistent thickness.
  • 6. Chill in the fridge for several hours to set, then cut into approximately 6 pieces. Wrap each one individually for a quick snack, or store them with wax paper in-between.

4 scoops protein powder (vanilla or chocolate)

Steps:

  • Mix all ingredients in a bowl, then press into a 9x9 inch pan lined with wax paper.

Tips:

  • Make certain you use old-fashioned oats. Fast-cooking oats won't provide the right texture.
  • Feel free to substitute honey, maple syrup, or agave nectar for the brown sugar. Be sure to cut the quantity by half if using a sweeter alternative.
  • Add some peanut butter, chopped nuts, or dried fruit to the mix for a tastier flavor.
  • If the mixture is too dry, add a little more almond milk. If it's too wet, add more oats.
  • If you don't have a baking pan, you can use a 9x13 inch dish instead.
  • No-bake protein bars can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks or in the freezer for up to 3 months.

These scrumptious no-bake protein bars are an excellent on-the-go snack or post-workout treat. They're packed with protein, fiber, and healthy fats to keep you satisfied and energized.
