Description
Delicious no-bake protein bars made with coconut, oats, and nut butter, perfect for a healthy snack or post-workout boost.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup vanilla protein powder
- 1 cup shredded unsweetened coconut
- 1/4 cup natural sweetener (honey or maple syrup)
- 1/4 cup nut butter (almond or peanut butter recommended)
- 1/4 cup rolled oats
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine the vanilla protein powder, shredded coconut, oats, and salt. Stir to distribute evenly.
- In another bowl, mix the natural sweetener, nut butter, and vanilla extract until smooth and cohesive.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until fully combined. The mixture should be sticky and hold together when pressed.
- Press the mixture firmly into a lined 8×8-inch baking dish, smoothing the top with the back of a spoon or your hands.
- Refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or until set. For a firmer bar, freeze for 20–30 minutes.
- Once set, lift the mixture out of the dish using the lining paper and cut into 12 bars.
