Almond Butter Protein Bars {Recipe}

These protein bars are care of my friend Jill. I went to a party she was having in May, and she served these bars made out of protein powder. They are delicious, and your kids will never know they are healthy!

INGREDIENTS

• 1 cup Almond Butter
• 1/4 cup Honey
• 1/4 cup Agave
• 9 oz. Protein Powder (we use Arbonne)
• 1 1/2 cups Quick cooking Oats
• 1 Tbsp. Cocoa Powder

METHOD

• Mix Almond Butter, Honey and Agave in a microwaveable dish and heat for a minute or so.
• Mix well and stir in protein powder.
• Add Oats and Cocoa Powder and mix gently.
• Spread into an 8×8 baking dish
• Refrigerate for 1 hour.

That’s all there is to it. No baking!!

One of my other friends made this recently and used Nutella in place of the Almond Butter. I used straight Agave, just because I don’t have the patience to wait for the Honey to drizzle out of its container, and I added Cinnamon. I omitted the Cocoa Powder this time around. I will probably be making these again tomorrow…and the next day!
