PEANUT BUTTER OATMEAL PROTEIN BARS

Tasty bars that pack a bunch of protein into a tiny yet satisfying bar. Great for recovery from a workout, a quick breakfast or snack, or on a hike. Easy to make gluten-free by using GF oats and oat flour. If you don't have oat flour, try pulverizing 50g of rolled oats in a food processor until they form a coarse flour consistency - works just as well.

Tips:

Use ripe bananas: The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your oatmeal protein bars will be.
Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the oatmeal protein bars tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
Chill the batter before baking: Chilling the batter will help the oatmeal protein bars hold their shape better.
Bake the oatmeal protein bars until they are just set: Overbaking the oatmeal protein bars will make them dry and crumbly.
Let the oatmeal protein bars cool completely before cutting them: Cutting the oatmeal protein bars while they are still warm will make them crumble.

Conclusion:

Peanut butter oatmeal protein bars are a delicious and nutritious snack or breakfast option. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a healthy and satisfying snack that will keep you energized throughout the day.
