There are ALL KINDS of protein bar recipes on the Internet. Many of them included some form of highly processed protein powder which can be REALLY pricey, especially if you are on a budget. I created this recipe because I wanted a healthy protein bar that was easy to make, healthy AND delicious and budget-friendly. This recipe is a whole food dish and is gluten-free, refined sugar-free, soy-free. Chances are you already have all the ingredients to make this in your cupboards. So let's get started!!!
1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the honey and nut butters until it is well combined. Stir in the ground flax seed and coconut flour. The coconut flour can be omitted, but it adds fiber and helps absorb some of the liquids.
2. Next stir in quick oats alternately with water. Once all the water is stirred in the mixture will be thick like cookie dough. If it is too wet, stir in more oats.
3. Fold in the chocolate chips and seeds.
4. Spray a 9" x 13" pan with cooking spray. Spread the mixture into the pan and press with lightly greased hands. A little cooking spray sprayed directly on your hands works well.
5. Chill for several hours or overnight in the refrigerator. Cut into squares. You can cut these as big or as small as you like. Store bars in an air tight container in the refrigerator. These get better the longer they chill and absorb the liquids.
