BROWNIE PROTEIN BARS

My homemade Perfect bar recipe are a classic, but I wanted to make a nut free protein bar option for everyone with allergies. These chocolate protein bars are brownie flavored and remind me of the iconic Cosmic brownies, so you know they're delicious.

Ingredients:

- Dates - Chocolate protein powder - Candy coated chocolate sprinkles - Seed butter - Cocoa powder

Are protein bars a healthy snack?

Protein bars such as these can be a great snack to have on hand during busy weeks. I always like to make my own because I can customize the ingredients to my taste and nutrient needs. These are a great option for a touch of sweetness and boost of protein during the day!

Top Tip

Use a sharp knife to help avoid cracking the chocolate topping while slicing the bars. For smaller protein ‘bites’ slice the bars in half creating 14 smaller bites perfect for a quick snack or sweet treat!

STORAGE

These brownie protein bars can be stored in the fridge for up to 7 days in an airtight container. I do not recommend storing them on the counter, as the chocolate may begin to melt. To freeze, place in an airtight container and freeze for up to 3 months. I recommend allowing them to defrost for about 5 minutes prior to enjoying.

Substitutions!

To make gluten-free: These are naturally gluten free protein bars. Ensure your protein powder is also gluten free. To make vegan: Use dairy-free chocolate chips and a vegan protein powder. To make nut-free: These are naturally nut free protein bars. Ensure your protein powder is also nut free.
