Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1 cup protein powder (vanilla or chocolate flavor works well)

Instructions

  1. Mix Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, honey, and protein powder. Use a spoon or spatula to stir the ingredients together thoroughly until you achieve a uniform, slightly sticky dough.
  2. Press Into Pan: Line an 8×8 inch baking pan with parchment paper for easy removal. Transfer the mixture into the pan and use your hands or a spatula to press it down evenly and firmly into the pan, creating a compact, flat surface.
  3. Chill: Place the pan in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours to allow the bars to set and firm up. Once chilled, remove the mixture from the pan and cut it into bars or squares of your desired size.

Notes

  • For a crunchier texture, consider adding chopped nuts or seeds to the mixture.
  • Store bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
  • To make the bars vegan, substitute honey with maple syrup or agave nectar.
  • Choose a protein powder that suits your dietary preferences for best results.
