Say hello to your new favorite snack: PB & Yogurt Protein Bars! Made with a combination of protein powder, powdered peanut butter, Greek yogurt, and chocolate chips, these bars are not only delicious but also packed with the nutrition your body needs.

Whether you are hitting the gym, heading to work, or just need a quick snack on-the-go, these bars are the perfect solution.

If you are looking to make homemade bars, though, then you have probably got an inkling that DIY’ing it has certain advantages. The main draw with going the homemade route is the infinite customizability.

Many protein energy bars on the market aren’t fit for everyone’s dietary needs (gluten free, vegan, nut-free etc), but when making your own, you can make sure that they are!

Store bought protein energy bars can be expensive. Even the cheaper brands that tend to have more added sugar and other unnecessary ingredients are still a few dollars per bar. Not to mention the bars with more natural ingredients.

Also when you make your own, it comes out so much cheaper than buying from the store. Whip up a batch in under 5 minutes, and you might never want to spend money on another packaged protein bar ever again.

This homemade recipe does not have any nasty preservatives and artificial sweeteners and is packed with healthy fats, recipe tastes better than store bought bars, and is packed with clean and nutritious ingredients.

These bars have a chewy texture and are made with just a few simple ingredients. They are one of my go-to recipes to make so I can have a quick snack to grab on a busy day. In my opinion, They are a great post-workout snack or the perfect snack to curb your sweet tooth.

Feel free to use your favorite protein powder, and the recipe can easily be doubled or tripled if you want to make up a big batch for meal prep.

Here’s why I love this recipe

No-bake and so easy to prepare with only 4 ingredients

High-protein and high-fiber, so it will keep you fuller longer

The best guilt-free dessert and post-workout snack

Notes: Peanut Butter Powder – PB powder is made by removing most of the oil from roasted peanuts and grinding them into a fine powder, resulting in a low-fat, high-protein alternative to traditional peanut butter.

Greek Yogurt (or yogurt of choice) – Greek yogurt acts like a binder for this protein bar recipe and adds a hefty boost of protein, too!

Chocolate Chips – you can use any chocolate chips. To make these protein bars low-carb, use a lower sugar, stevia-sweetened brand.
