Introduction
A recipe by Jamie Eason for chocolate protein bars, found on BodyBuilding.com, with a few changes given what I had on hand.These are super moist (if not overbaked) and chocolatey, great for a chocolate cake fix!
Changes: I used 1/2 cup applesauce & one mashed banana, instead of 8 oz. berry baby food, as the original recipe required. I also subbed 1/2 cup wheat pastry flour with 1/2 cup oat flour, rather than full cup oat flour, and used only 2 servings egg beaters egg whites, rather than 4 whites from eggs.

Ingredients
-
1/2 cup Oat Flour (I processed regular rolled oats to flour)
1/2 cup Whole Wheat Pastry Flour
2 Egg-beater Egg Whites (or 4 whites from eggs)
2 scoops Vanilla Whey Protein Powder (I used Beverly UMP brand, at 130 cals & 20 g protein per scoop)
1/2 cup Splenda, Truvia, or Ideal
1/2 tsp Baking Soda
1/4 tsp Salt
1/2 cup Unsweetened Applesauce
1 medium mashed banana
4 tbsp Baking Cocoa
4oz Water
2 T. chopped pecans (optional- but included in nutrition)
Directions
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Mix dry ingredients (oat flower, vanilla whey protein, baking soda, salt, baking cocoa) together in a large bowl.
3. Whisk together wet ingredients (egg whites, Splenda, Truvia, or Ideal, Applesauce, Banana, Water) together in a medium sized bowl.
4. Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients and mix together.
5. Spray an 8" x 8" or 9" x 9" cooking dish (glass or metal would work, I imagine) with a non stick butter spray (or line with parchment) and add batter to dish. Sprinkle chopped nuts over top (if using- optional).
6. Bake 20-30 minutes in oven. (I baked for about 24 minutes in a 9x9 glass dish- perfect!)
Serving Size: Makes 16 bars. Serving = 2 bars.
