Ingredients

2 medium avocados, peeled and deseeded
1 medium ripe banana
1/2 cup desiccated coconut
1/2 cup chocolate chunks or chips (optional)
1/4 cup protein or collagen powder
1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
1/4 cup honey or maple syrup
2 limes, juice and zest

Instructions

Line an 8 x 8-inch baking 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.
Peel the banana and add to a food processor along with the avocado flesh, desiccated coconut, protein powder, coconut oil, honey, lime juice and zest. Blitz the ingredients together until a smooth glossy mixture forms.
Stir through the chocolate pieces ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
Pour the mixture into a lined baking tin, ensuring the mixture reaches into all four corners and is smooth on top
Place in the freezer to set for a minimum of two hours before slicing into 12 bars or more squares depending on the size you prefer.
Store bars covered in the fridge. They will be fresh for up to 5-7days.
These protein bars also freeze very well! Seal them inside an airtight container or Ziploc bag for up to 3 months.
