Peanut Butter Protein Bars
I have been experimenting with my own protein bars. I can't find any
that really work for me anymore. They either have dairy or rice, or some
other substance that I can't consume. I like to have some handy in case
I am running around, and just need a snack. After much experimenting, I
came up with these yummy bars. I call them Peanut Butter Protein Bars!
I am not great with measuring things. I tend to cook more by feel, so meal creation can go either way. But I have made a few batches of these, and I still really like them. Consider this more of an outline :)
I am pretty picky about using good quality ingredients, and avoid sugar as much as possible. The dates are sweet enough as it is. The peanut powder gives a nice protein punch...at an estimate, about 10g per bar.
