Protein Bar Recipes | Kyle Wood Fitness . com

When I was going through my low carb phase I searched around for a low carb protein bar recipe with no carbohydrate in it to eat as a snack throughout the day. Low carb diets are the fastest way to lose weight quickly while preserving muscle mass although personally I prefer to avoid thinking in terms of dieting and not dieting. I tried a few protein bar recipes but I kept coming up with very dry bars. I would cook them on Sunday and use them through the week, so if they were dry Monday the were terrible by Friday!

So I started experimenting with cooking times and ingredients and this is what I came up with. It’s not as good as my oats, fruit, nut and protein bar recipe.

Chocolate and Nuts Protein Bar.

Ingredients

6 scoops chocolate protein powder (Half Casein/Half WPC but any will do)
1/2 cup walnuts
1/2 cup cashews
2 eggs whole
2 egg whites
1/2 cup LSA mix
1 cup almond meal
1/2 cup skim milk

Directions

Preheat oven to 350ºF.

Beat eggs and egg whites together.

Mix all dry ingredients together in a large bowl. Ensure ingredients are well mixed before adding the skim milk and eggs. Stir mixture well, it will become very thick. Add up to another 1/2 cup of water slowly until mixture is a sticky dough.

Spray an 8″x8″ tray with olive oil. Spread mixture evenly in pan and pop in the oven for 15 minutes. When cooked the bars should still be slightly sticky inside. Cut into 6 pieces and store in the fridge.
