Christine's Renegade Protein Bars
Fat: 3g | Protein: 21g | Carbs: 33g | Servings: 9

You think these protein bars are badass, you should see this girl swing a kettlebell....


Dry Ingredients:
3 1/2 cups rolled oats
1 1/2 cups powdered non-fat milk
1 tsp Vanilla
4 scoops vanilla protein powder

Wet Ingredients:
1 cup sugar free pancake syrup (Be careful which syrup you buy - reduced calorie doesn't mean sugar free.)
2 egg whites or silken tofu
1/4 cup Orange Juice (or substitute water or liquid from other fruit)
1/4 c. natural applesauce (or 1/2 banana)

Other optional ingredients: (which will change the nutritional profile; you may need to experiment with the other ingredients to obtain the right consistency)
Raisins
Nuts
Peanut butter
Coconut

*Substituting quinoa for the oatmeal increases the protein greatly, but also increases the calories. I sometimes use a mixture of oatmeal and quinoa and it tastes great.


Instructions:
1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
2. Mix all dry ingredients (I use a Kitchen Aid on the lowest setting)
3. Mix all wet ingredients in a separate bowl and then add slowly to the dry ingredients (while stirring)
4. I use a 9 x 12 baking dish, coated with cooking spray; others may prefer a thinner "bar" and can use a cooking sheet.
5. Bake until edges are crisp and browned. (I start with 15 minutes and test with a toothpick.)
