Homemade Gluten/Dairy Free, Healthy Protein Bars (LOWER FAT VERSION)

What you need:


  • 6 tbsp. cups unsweetened shredded coconut
  • 6 tbsp. ¼ cup almond flour (buy at a health food store or make your own by blending almonds)
  • 3 tbsp. ½ cup ground flax seeds
  • ¼ cup natural sweetener like Stevia – you can use flavoured liquid vanilla too
  • 4 tbsp. unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 8 scoops chocolate whey protein powder
  • ½ cup 100% Pure Pumpkin (canned)
  • ½ cup Unsweetened almond milk


What you do:
  1. Mix all dry ingredients together. Add almond butter and mix till everything sticks together. Finally add a bit of almond milk slowly until you get a good sticky mix (not too gooey) just enough so you can form into a big flat pancake shape that won't fall apart.
  2. 2. Spray some non-stick oil spray into a square or rectangular pan, and sprinkle shredded coconut at the bottom.
  3. Spread the mix into the pan.
  4. Finally sprinkle with some more shredded coconut on top as well so that it’s not too sticky later.
  5. Refrigerate for a few hours, and when the mixture is nice and firm, cut into squares.
Makes 8 bars.
