The ULTIMATE decadent protein bar, drawing on a classic combination of chocolate and orange. Absolutely decadent with no refined ingredients - these are an absolute MUST.You all know about my search for a tasty protein bar, that doesn’t resemble cardboard or have millions of ingredients that you can’t pronounce! My favourite pre-workout snack, I always find that it gives me SO much energy and sustained me throughout my workouts. Best snack to have when you don’t have much time. I have a big stash of them frozen in my freezer ready to be consumed whenever needed.
chocolate chips and crushed nuts of choiceoptional
Instructions
In a food processor blend the dates and warm water until it forms a sticky smooth paste.
Place all ingredients (except chocolate chips & crushed nuts) into the food processor and combine well (you can mix it in a bowl instead by hand).
Stir in chocolate chips & crushed nuts if adding.
Place mixture in a lined brownie tin, and add some extra orange zest on-top if desired.
Store in freezer in an airtight container (NOT in fridge as the texture may be too soft), and allow to thaw for 5 mins before serving!
Notes
Makes 15-20 barsThese do not keep well out of the fridge, and its advised to consumed them straight after they thaw. These are a great option for an at home snack, but if you would like something you can take with you I would suggest using my protein brownie recipe instead.
