Lola`s Low(er) Carb Protein Bars!!
I wanted a protein bar that tasted like something between a Luna Bar and an Oatmeal Cookie, but still had a decent amount of protein, and not a lot of fat...This is what I came up with, and it`s YUUUUMMMMM!!
One note of caution: keep an eye on it while it bakes because soy flour is already "cooked" and thus burns pretty quickly.
Yummy Protein Bars:
Ingredients:
1/4 cup butter
1/2 cup splenda
1/2 cup applesauce
1 cup soy flour
1 cup rolled oats
1/2 cup protein powder (I used chocolate, but any flavor should be ok)
3/4 Dry TVT (Textured Vegetable Protein)
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
1/2 cup chopped almonds
1 tsp Vanilla extract
Mix ¼ cup butter w/ ½ cup splenda and ¼ cup applesauce till creamed.
Add 1 cup oats, 1 cup soy flour, 1/2 cup protien powder (I used chocolate Muscle Provider, but I think you could use whatever...), nuts and ¾ cup TVT. Add another ¼ cup applesauce and 1 tsp vanilla.
Mix it all up-- it will be crumbly but should sort of stick together like super dense sticky oatmeal.
Press into 9 x 13 baking pan (lightly greased) and bake at 350 for 25 minutes.
Cut into 12 bars or squares.
