Snickers Protein Bars

Ingredients

Layer 1

  • ⅔ cup vanilla protein powder
  • ½ cup almond flour
  • 2 tbsp maple syrup
  • Up to 6 tbsp non-dairy milk of choice

Start with less milk and gradually add more until the mixture reaches a thick, dough-like consistency. Different protein powders absorb liquid differently.

Layer 2

  • ½ cup peanut butter or nut/seed butter of choice
  • 2 tbsp coconut oil, melted
  • 2 tbsp maple syrup
  • A pinch of sea salt
  • ⅓ cup peanuts, plus more for topping

Chocolate coating

  • 1½ cups chocolate chips
  • 1½ tbsp coconut oil

Instructions

  1. 1

    Make the first layer

    Add the layer 1 ingredients to a bowl and mix well. Press the mixture into the RaisingBars mold and place it in the freezer.

  2. 2

    Add the peanut layer

    Mix the layer 2 ingredients, except the peanuts. Stir in the peanuts, spread the mixture over layer 1 and top with extra peanuts. Freeze for 1–2 hours.

  3. 3

    Melt the chocolate

    Melt the chocolate and coconut oil on the stovetop or in 30-second microwave intervals, stirring between each interval.

  4. 4

    Coat the bars

    Remove the bars from the mold. Dip each bar into the melted chocolate and place it on a plate or tray. Sprinkle with sea salt.

  5. 5

    Set and enjoy

    Return the bars to the freezer until the chocolate has set, then serve and enjoy.
