Recipe Introduction


original recipe from Stella's Kitchen




List of Ingredients




Prep Time: 5 hours
Total Time: 5 hours

Ingredients:

5 tablespoons natural peanut butter (chunky or smooth) - try subbing pumpkin or other seed butter instead
1/2 cup dry oats or whole grain hot cereal (uncooked) - like Bob's Brown Rice
1/2 cup oat flour * (not doing gf oats, try coconut flour)
6 scoops chocolate protein (or about ~132 grams protein) - hemp,
egg, pea or rice protein
1 teaspoon pure vanilla
2 tablespoons flax seeds (optional but adds fibre to help deal
with the protein plus adds EFAs like omega 3 and 6)
1 cup df dry milk powder (like Vance's)
1/2 cup water (depending on what type of protein you use, you may need more)



Recipe



Preparation:

Spray an 8x8 baking dish with non-stick cooking spray. Combine dry ingredients in a medium size bowl and mix well. Add peanut butter and mix - the mixture will be crumbly and dry. Add water & vanilla. Using a wooden spoon or rubber spatula, everything until a dough forms. The dough will be sticky. Spread dough into pan using a clean wooden spoon or spatula that has been sprayed with non-stick cooking spray.

Refrigerate a few hours (or freeze for an hour) and cut into 9 squares. Wrap bars individually (use sandwich bags or plastic wrap) or store in covered container between sheets of wax paper. Keep refrigerated.

Modifications: Use vanilla protein and replace ~1/4 cup of the oatflour with a variety of nuts, seeds, or dried berries. Chopped almonds, hazelnuts, cashews, peanuts, flax seeds, sesame seeds, pumpkin seeds, raisins, or dried cranberries would all work well.

* Making Oatmeal/Oat Flour: To make your own oat flour, all you need to do is put a cup or two of oatmeal in a regular household blender and blend it on high...it will turn into a flour. Store in a covered bowl in the pantry. It takes 1 minute and is VERY easy and cheap
alternative to buying in the store.
