I always have a few of these on hand for an easy grab-and-go snack! Protein bars are a staple in my diet, as is chocolate. Once I learned how much cheaper AND tastier homemade protein bars are, I completely eliminated buying protein bars from the grocery store.

Why I love this recipe…

Wholesome ingredients. No hidden sugar – or worse, corn syrup! These bars are naturally sweetened, and prepped in 10 minutes. Just mix all the ingredients in a bowl and let the bars chill until firm.

Perfect for chocolate lovers. Chocolate is a mandatory part of my day, and when I can satisfy my chocolate cravings AND hit my protein goal, that’s even better.

Protein-rich – 12 grams of protein per bar. They are the perfect midday snack, healthy dessert, or post-workout bar.

If you have ever browsed the protein bar section of a supermarket, you will know what I mean when I say there is an endless supply of options to choose from. However, those options are not always the best. After scanning the ingredients label on nearly every bar, you have probably (a) walked away in disappointment or (b) knowingly settled for a mediocre bar.

You may have wondered, “Why are they all filled with weird ingredients? Why is sugar the first ingredient in so many of these bars? Wait, why is refined sugar even IN these supposed health bars?”

If you have been searching for a protein bar that’s made with minimal ingredients, truly healthy, and tastes DELICIOUS, this is the recipe for you!

These homemade chocolate raspberry protein bars are made with no refined sugar, no dairy, and no additives. With just a handful of ingredients, you can create a high protein snack that tastes like dessert. Nobody will guess that they are actually good for you!

Reader review: “OMG I’m so obsessed with these right now. I look forward to eating one after my workout each day. I thought I liked a number of well-known brand name protein bars, but now that I’ve made these I don’t even want to go back to buying protein bars because they are so inferior. I also feel really good knowing and seeing exactly what goes into them”.

Servings 8

Ingredients

• 1 cup almond flour
• 1/2 cup rolled oats
• 1/2 cup freeze-dried raspberries
• 1/3 cup cashew (or any other nut or seed) butter
• 1/4 cup protein or collagen peptides powder
• 1/4 cup milk
• 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup

Chocolate Drizzle

• 1/2 cup chocolate chips
• 1 teaspoon coconut oil

Instructions

• Line a 7 x 5-inchbaking 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.

  Place almond flour, oats, cashew butter, protein powder, milk and honey into a food processor and process until well combined into a dough like mixture. If dough seems a little dry add more milk, a tablespoon at a time until mixture comes together. You want it to stick together between your fingers.

  Add freeze dried-raspberries and pulse a few times to incorporate but still leave some pieces whole to give little pops of flavour in the bars.

  Press the dough evenly into the bottom of the lined pan and spread out evenly with the back of a spoon.  

Chocolate Drizzle

• Place chocolate chips and coconut oil in small dish and microwave with 20 second bursts stirring between each one until melted and smooth.

  Or use double boiler method - (pot of boiling water with a bowl resting on top) melt the chocolate chips and the coconut oil together.

  Once melted, drizzle over the bars with a spoon.

  Place the pan into the freezer for 30 minute before cutting into 8-10 bars or more smaller squares to serve.

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