Peanut Butter Protein Bars

Easy no-bake peanut butter protein bars made with almond flour and chocolate chips.
Prep Time10 minutes
Total Time10 minutes
Servings: 16 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups almond flour
  • 1/2 cup protein powder of choice
  • 3/4 cup natural peanut butter
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 3 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk or milk of choice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/3 cup chocolate chips I used Lily's

Instructions

  • Line the 8x8-inch pan with parchment paper so the bars can be lifted out easily.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour and protein powder; stir to blend evenly.
  • Add the natural peanut butter, honey, almond milk, and vanilla extract to the dry mixture and stir with a spatula until a uniform, slightly sticky dough forms.
  • Fold in the chocolate chips, reserving a few to sprinkle on top if desired.
  • Press the mixture firmly and evenly into the prepared pan using the spatula so the surface is compact.
  • Refrigerate the pan for 30–60 minutes (or freeze for about 25 minutes) until the bars are set.
  • Lift the set mixture from the pan using the parchment and cut into 16 squares.
  • Store the bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

Equipment

  • Mixing Bowl

Notes

  • These are no-bake bars; chilling firms them up.
  • Use any protein powder you prefer.
  • Swap almond milk for another milk if desired.
  • Freeze for faster setting.
  • Slice into fewer pieces for larger bars.
