Peanut Butter Alpen Bars image

This is a recipe that I sort of made up using healthy ingredients that I like and want my children to eat. I warn you, they are addicting, especially if you LOVE peanut butter. I have tried other protien bar recipes but like the crunchiness that these bars afford. Plus with the powdered milk, you have calcium, too! Do try to use the brand names that I mention, they are healthy, high in protien, vitamins, and have no trans fats. ENJOY.

Time 25m

Yield 21 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 1/2 cups of smucker's natural creamy peanut butter
1/2 cup of clover honey (any old generic honey will do)
1 cup instant nonfat dry milk powder (I use generic)
1/2 cup of alpen original organic muesli
1/2 cup of ocean spray craisins
1 pinch salt (omit the salt if you use something like...skippy peanut butter or Jiff)
1/4-1/2 cup chocolate chips, melted in microwave (but I feel necessary - I LOVE CHOCOLATE) (optional)

Steps:

  • I bought all my ingredients except the Alpen at Wal----.
  • Get out the mixer right now because there is no way that you can mix these ingredients well enough by hand.
  • Put all ingredients in the bowl, mixing slowly at first until just about blended.
  • Using a paddle or spoon, carefully fold melted chocolate chips into mix and mix and mix until well blended.
  • Dump contents unto wax paper, topping with another piece of wax paper and press into about a 7" square.
  • Slice into whatever size bar you like (I aim for around 21) remembering that peanut butter is extremely fattening.
  • Refridgerate AFTER SLICING.

These bars are a great way to use up leftover peanut butter. I always have a jar of peanut butter in my pantry, so it's nice to have a recipe that uses it up.

Overall, I thought these bars were just okay. They weren't bad, but they weren't anything special either.

These bars were a bit too crumbly for my taste. I had a hard time keeping them together when I was eating them.

I found these bars to be a bit dry. I would have liked them better if they had been more moist.

These bars are a bit too sweet for my taste. I would have preferred them with less sugar.

These bars are a great source of protein and fiber. They're also a good source of healthy fats, thanks to the peanut butter and oats.

I'm not a huge fan of peanut butter, but I really enjoyed these bars. The peanut butter flavor is subtle and not overpowering.

These bars are the perfect afternoon pick-me-up. They're filling and satisfying, but not too heavy.
