Equipment

  • (Mini) muffin pan

Ingredients

Peanut butter protein layer

  • 1/4 cup peanut butter powder (30 g)
  • 2 tbsp vanilla protein powder (15 g) plant-based if desired
  • 1 tbsp coconut flour (7 g) oat flour might work as well
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup (21 g)
  • Pinch of salt
  • About 2 tbsp water (30 g)

Chocolate layer

  • 1/4 cup chocolate chips (45 g)
  • 1 tsp coconut oil (5 g)

Instructions

  • In a medium bowl add all the protein layer ingredients except water. Add enough water to make a bar dough (similar to cookie dough, not too wet or sticky. If it gets too wet, add more dry ingredients).
  • Press this into 6 muffin cavities, about 1 tbsp each. Refrigerate.
  • In a small bowl add chocolate and coconut oil, melt in the microwave in 30 sec increments, stirring in between.
  • Pour about 1 tsp melted chocolate on each muffin cavity, freeze or refrigerate to set.
  • Thaw for a few minutes before enjoying, keep your bars frozen or refrigerated!
