Homemade Protein Bites
This is my preferred alternative to buying boxes of bars. Containing over 5g of natural protein, I then added x2 scoops of impact whey isolate (as it’s the only one I have in the house currently) and boosted them to contain over 11g of protein
Recipe: Ingredients
The Base:
75g ground almonds
2tbsp cocoa powder
2tbsp maple syrup
1tbsp coconut oil
Pinch of saltPB layer:
120g peanut butter
3tbsp maple syrup
1tbsp coconut oil (melted)
Protein powder (optional)
The Topping:
30g cocoa powder
3tbsp coconut oil (melted)
3tbsp maple syrup
How-To:
Mix the base ingredients together, and place and press down in a lined tray or dish. Then add to the freezer whilst making the next layer.
Next mix your PB ingredients together, then pour over base layer and put back in the freezer.
Lastly, combine all the topping ingredients, and pour over the final layer. Place back in the freezer for 30 minutes to allow the bars to set.
With a sharp knife, cut into roughly 8 squares and enjoy!Best stored in a container in the freezer to keep fresh, and should last about two weeks (but they’ll definitely be finished before then).
