No baked protein bars

To prepare the bars, stir together all ingredients except the chocolate in a mixing bowl.

Transfer to an 8-inch skillet lined with parchment paper or wax paper, and place a second sheet on top to distribute the mixture in the pan so it fits evenly across the bottom of the pan.

Melt the chocolate either in the microwave or on the stove. (If you’ve never melted chocolate, it’s a good idea to google how to melt chocolate so it doesn’t burn.)

I like to sauté 2-3 teaspoons of oil (like sunflower, vegetable, or coconut) for a smoother sauce that’s easier to coat the bars, but that’s not required.

Either spread the melted chocolate over the pan and cool or freeze until the oatmeal mixture is firm, then cut into slabs, or freeze the filled pan before adding the chocolate toppings, cut into slabs once firm, then dip each piece into the mould. The chocolate cools until firm.

Best Chocolate Protein Bar

The bars were inspired by this protein bar recipe.

  • 1 1/2 A quick or rolled cup of oats (For a low carb, try this keto protein bars)
  • 1/4 Teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 Cup Butter, peanut butter, or hypoallergenic substances
  • 1/2 Cup Pure maple syrup, honey or agave
  • 2/3 Cup Favorite protein powder – enjoy different flavors (70g)
  • 4 ounce Melted chocolate chips or bars
  • Mix the first five ingredients well. Transfer the mixture to an 8-inch skillet lined with parchment paper or wax paper. Place a second sheet of paper on top and use it to crush the mixture and spread it so it evenly fills the bottom of the pan. Carefully melt the chocolate. (I like to stir 2-3 teaspoons of oil into the melted chocolate for a smoother sauce that’s easy to coat, but isn’t required.) You can either spread the melted chocolate over the pan, cool it or freeze it until firm, then cut it into bars or freeze the pan before adding the chocolate, cut it into bars once it’s firm, then dip each bar in the wrapping and let it cool until it hardens.
