Have you ever tried perfect bars? They are beyond delicious! The peanut butter, the chocolate, and the marriage of the two in your mouth…. OOOOoo! They are so good 🙂

They are basically peanut butter protein bars! This chocolate chip, peanut butter, perfect bar recipe is the best healthy snack! Highly addicting, satisfying, and chewy! You won’t need any other protein bar in your life, trust me.

When I bit into a Perfect bar for the first time, I said, “Wow, this is amazing…and pricey!” The wheels began to turn in my brain on how to create a homemade copycat version of this yummy protein bar straight from heaven.

The birth of this copycat perfect bars recipe was simply a must! Like the Larabar, these are one of my go-to bars for a clean, whole food snack.

If you are looking to save some money while still being able to enjoy the AMAZINGNESS of perfect bars, you have come to the right place. I’m all about making recipes that are easy, delicious, and packed with nutrition.

Even if you have never had a perfect bar before, these homemade peanut butter protein bars will be your new favorite. They only take about 10 minutes to make and require very minimal ingredients! You simply mix all ingredients together, press the dough into a pan, and chill until set! That’s it! So simple, and they are the best perfect bar recipe, copycat!

The original Perfect Bars are peanut butter protein bars whose main ingredients are peanut butter and honey. There are many variations in the grocery store, from almond to seasonal pumpkin and everything in between.

For convenience sake, it’s so simple to buy the pre-packaged bars from the store, but it is so easy to make your own recipe version of copycat homemade perfect bars.

Some years ago when I first found these bars at one of those little sample stations at the grocery store, oh man was I hooked! But then…. I saw the price tag.

So, I decided that I could make perfect bars from scratch for a fraction of the price! I have made this recipe so many times and adapted it and changed it and I think I’ve finally found a winner!

Homemade Perfect Bars versus Store Bought

There is nothing better than being able to make your favorite store bought or restaurant item at home. For one, it’s much more cost effective and you can have it whenever you like.

So you can imagine I was quite happy when I ventured out to make the ever popular Perfect Bar recipe at home and I liked them even better than the store bought! I was surprised by how easy it was to replicate the recipe.

They are just as delicious and way less expensive. These bars are a quick snack rich in healthy fats and protein. I went with a chocolate peanut butter flavor in this recipe, but you could always change it up with your nut butter and protein powder of choice.

Ok, so this recipe is not exactly Perfect Bars, but it is so similar and has plenty of protein and goodness, I find it to be a great homemade alternative. I went with a chocolate peanut butter flavor in this recipe, but you could always change it up with your nut butter and protein powder of choice.

These amazing little bars pack a punch! A couple small bites and you will be ready for the day. Start your day off with the protein your body needs!

Servings 7

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cups oat flour (rolled oats blended to a flour) or almond flour
• 1/2 cup peanut (or any other nut) butter
• 1/2 cup protein or collagen powder – vanilla or unflavoured
• 1/4 cup almond (or any) milk
• 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup
• 1/2 cup chocolate chips
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

• Line a 7 x 5-inch loaf pan or dish with parchment paper on the bottom and sides leaving some overhanging to act as a handle to get the bars out easier for cutting.

  In a medium bowl or using a standing mixer, add all ingredients (except chocolate chips) and mix with large spoon or spatula until a dough forms.

  If dough is a little dry, add a little more almond milk until you get a soft dough. If dough seems too wet or very sticky, add a little oat flour until you get the right consistency (all protein powders are different so this is why the recipe is a little flexible).

  Taste test and add more honey or vanilla extract if you think it needs it.

  Feel free to mix a few tablespoons of chocolate chips into the batter if you would like. Transfer protein bar dough to the parchment lined pan. Using a spatula or back of a spoon spread dough out into an even layer.

  Lightly press remaining chocolate chips into the top of the bars.

  Place perfect bars in the freezer for 15-30 minutes until set. Transfer out of freezer, cut, and enjoy! Makes 7 large bars or more smaller squares.

  Store in the fridge for up to 1 week or freezer for up to 3 months.

  You can eat these bars straight out of the freezer or let them sit for 10 minutes for a softer texture.
