Apple Protein Bars
With all the apples we had on our tree this year, I have been excited to dream up some new recipes. These protein bars are simple and don't have too many ingredients- they also taste good too!
In a bowl combine:
- 4 scoops vanilla protein powder (I used a plant based one, but whey would work too)
- 1/2 cup almond flour
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 3 egg whites
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 1/2 cup cottage cheese
- 1 cup apple sauce (I used the homemade sauce I blogged about last week. If you are using store bought, feel free to add in some nutmeg and cinnamon to your mixture
Pour batter into a greased 9 x 9 pan and bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 min. Remove from oven and let cool. Cut into 16 squares to enjoy fresh or freeze for later. Enjoy!
