Recipe Introduction
Energy bar that is 40% carb, 30% protein, and 30% fat, with 250
calories. Makes 30 bars:
List of Ingredients
2 cups corn syrup [stevia]
1 tablespoon honey [stevia]
2 cups natural peanut butter, preferably fresh ground [almond butter]
1 to 2 tablespoons cocoa
1 teaspoon (or more) cinnamon
1 teaspoon salt
2 cups naturade vegetable protein powder (available at health food
stores) [soy protein powder]
3 cups oats, quick or old fashioned, pureed into a powder in a food
processor [what sort of GF grain could go here? puffed rice cereal?]
Recipe
Mix the first 6 ingredients in a bowl. Stir in protein powder until
the mixture becomes too stiff, then use your hands to mix. Add in
oats; at this point upper body strength is required. The dough will
be very stiff. After mixing, spread onto a 11.5" X 15" jelly roll pan
coated with non-stick cooking spray. Refrigerate for at least one
hour; cut into 30 bars, and place each into a Ziploc bag or store
them somehow. They will remain fresh longer if refrigerated. Happy
eating!
