Apple Bars Recipes

Triathlete Brendan Brazier shared these raw energy bar recipes with us. While energy bars can be pricey, you can make them at home to control costs.

Modified from a recipe found on Jamie's blog http://tinyurl.com/lkzfjz who adapted it from Allrecipes. My version is egg-free, whole grain, slightly lower in added sugar which compensates for all the butterscotch chips folded in! It's been a hit at bakesales!

I wanted to make a bread but didn't have anything but an 8X8 pan sooo I thought I would make them like bars...tricky part is that they cut/tasted more like super moist cake. It is VERY dense. Store in the fridge since it contains yogurt.

If you eat it for breakfast, it's GREAT with maple syrup & for dessert its great with vanilla ice cream or cool whip!

These cookie bars are irresistibly soft and perfect on a rainy day.

On the go snack

Healthy, Low-carb, clean protein bars.

Nice after school snack

No-bake, super-easy, healthful protein nutrition bars! High protein, low fat, multigrain, natural, fruit, nut, no sugar added, filling... very very tasty.

Slightly modified from the original recipe, at http://thegreatbalancingact.com/eats/apple
-cinnamon-protein-bars/. These are quick and delicious, and preservative free!



Feel free to substitute other dried fruits, nut butters, spices, protein flavors, or even fruits (try pureed bananas or dates!). It's completely customizable, so please share your best combination creations. =)

You can also use all-nut butter and no PB substitute (ie.Better'n Peanut Butter), but the calories will be slightly higher and closer to a meal than a snack bar.

This is a nice dessert for any day of the year, whether it is Christmas Eve, Forth of July, or just a Sunday afternoon. Easy to make and yummy to eat. Enjoy!

I made these because I really like the Nutrisystem Apple Strudel bar. I wanted something that could be eaten as a bar or muffin. I also wanted something to replace the Optavia and Nutrisystem bars I buy and like.
