Danny's Whole30® Protein Bars image

At long last I'm revealing the recipe for my famous Whole30® snack bars. They are delicious as a midday snack or post-gym protein bar. Most protein bar recipes call for added sugar, sugar substitutes, artificial sweeteners, or honey...these use chopped dates to be Whole30® complaint! The recipe is influenced by ingredients found in Jewish macaroons, with egg whites and shredded coconut.

Time 1h30m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup almonds
½ cup sliced almonds
1 cup cashews
¼ cup chopped pistachio nuts
¼ cup pepitas (pumpkin seeds)
1 cup dried pitted dates, finely chopped
1 cup shredded coconut
1 teaspoon fleur de sel (sea salt flakes)
1 teaspoon cinnamon
¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
½ cup coconut oil
5 egg whites

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly oil a 9x9-inch oven-safe glass baking dish.
  • Combine almonds, sliced almonds, cashews, pistachios, and pumpkin seeds in the bowl of a food processor. Pulse on the 'coarse' setting until coarsely chopped. Pour 1/2 the mixture into a large bowl. Continue blending the remaining mixture in the food processor until nuts are finely chopped and have a flour-like consistency. Add to the bowl. Fold in dates, coconut, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg and stir to combine.
  • Add coconut oil and egg whites to the nut mixture in the bowl, folding until well incorporated. Transfer mixture to the prepared baking dish.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until set, about 40 minutes.
  • Remove and let cool to room temperature, about 30 minutes. Cut into bar shapes and wrap in aluminum foil for easy transport.
