This festive season, we’ve partnered with Nutritional Therapist Danielle Clifton to put a high protein, wholefoods twist on the classic Snickers Bar.
“Protein bars in the supermarkets are filled with SO many additives, gums, thickeners and low quality protein sources that are terrible for our gut health and disrupt the microbiome.
You really don’t need to be eating those when it’s so easy to whip up your own homemade version that only uses whole food ingredients.”
Ingredients
1 cup almond flour
1 cup Peanut Butter Protein Boost granola
1/3 cup drippy peanut butter
2 tbsp coconut oil
2-3 tbsp collagen powder
Pinch Salt
Middle:
3/4 c peanut butter
1/2 c coconut oil
2-3 tbsp maple syrup
1 tsp vanilla
Top:
150g choc
1 tbsp coconut oil
Paleo protein boost granola
Method
- Preheat oven to 170. Combine ingredients for the base and press into a square baking dish lined with baking paper.
- Bake the base for 6-9 minutes until slightly golden.
- Allow the base to cool. Mix the ingredients for the middle together and pour over the base. Set in the fridge for 4 hours or over night.
- Cut into bars and melt the chocolate with coconut oil. Dip each bar into the chocolate and place onto another sheet of baking paper. Sprinkle with paleo protein boost granola.
- Store in the fridge so they stay firm.
