Chocolatey Nut Butter Protein Granola Bars
Oven-baked oats and quinoa bars infused with rich cocoa and creamy almond butter for a chewy texture that melts in your mouth.
INGREDIENTS
0.5 cup rolled oats
0.5 cup cooked quinoa
3 scoops chocolate plant-based protein powder
1 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tbsp chia seeds
1 tbsp almond butter
0.25 cup unsweetened applesauce
0.25 cup water
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp vanilla extract
1 tbsp mini dark chocolate chips
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a small loaf pan with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, cooked quinoa, chocolate protein powder, cocoa powder, chia seeds, and sea salt.
Add the almond butter, unsweetened applesauce, vanilla extract, and water to the dry ingredients.
Stir the mixture thoroughly until a thick, sticky dough forms, ensuring no pockets of dry protein powder remain.
Fold in the mini dark chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Transfer the mixture to the prepared loaf pan and press down firmly with a spatula to create an even layer.
Bake for 15 to 18 minutes until the edges are slightly firm but the center remains soft to ensure a chewy texture.
Remove from the oven and allow the bars to cool completely in the pan before slicing into thick rectangles.
