Introduction

I reworked a recipe on SparkPeople for the Almond Joy Protein Bars a bit. I reworked a recipe on SparkPeople for the Almond Joy Protein Bars a bit.
Number of Servings: 9

Ingredients

    1.5 cups quick oats
    2 scoops chocolate protein powder
    1/4 cup ground almonds
    1/4 cup toasted coconut (unsweetened)
    1 cup Powdered milk
    2TBL ground flax seed
    1/2 cup Sugar Free Coconut flavored syrup (I used Torini brand from World Market)
    1 Large egg

Directions

Makes 9 bars
Preheat oven to 350 deg. Spray a 8x8 cake pan with nonstick spray.

In a large bowl combine dry ingredients. Then add egg and syrup. Combine well and press evenly into pan. (it's a gooey mess) Bake 20-30 minutes just until the edges are brown. Dont bake too long or it will dry out too much.

Cool completely and keep in pan. Transfer to frige until cold and then cut them. If you try to cut them while they are even slightly warm, you'll have granola. (good chocolately granola, but not a bar)

    I really want to try making these, but I'm not sure what sugar free syrup is, and I don't usually shop at world market. Does anyone have any suggestions for a substitute for the Sugar Free Coconut flavored syrup?

    I would substitute hemp seeds for the flax seeds to get more nutrition out of these. - 8/27/12
