I wrote this recipe for Protein Oatmeal Bars in October and completely forgot to upload it here. I meant to do it but, you know, I let the ‘mañana syndrome’ take over and the days went by and by and until eventually mañana turned into ‘nunca’ and the bars banished from my memory…
Until this morning when I was doing a folder cleanup and BAM! I found an album titled ‘Oat Bars – Upload Me.’ Ah, the joy! I could almost taste the bars when I saw all the pics. I remember their every detail: the way they subtly crumbled when broken in half, the sweetness of the chocolate against the toffee and the umph-umph-AHHHHH of their coco-nuttiness.
Ingredients
1 cup Rolled Oats
4 tbsp Peanut Butter (Or almond)
1/2 cup Coconut Flakes

1/4 cup Whey Protein Powder
1 tsp Toffee flavdrops

1/4 cup Pea Protein Powder
2 tbsp Coconut Flour

2. Press the batter down onto an (ideally nonstick) brownie pan.

5. Decorate the bars with melted dark chocolate!
