Ingredients

    4 serving Old Fashioned Quaker Oatmeal- Plain (1/2 cup dry)
    16 tbsp Bell Plantation PB2
    4 serving Applesauce, MUSSELMAN'S Lite
    2 tsp Baking Powder
    2 tsp Vanilla Extract
    4 large Egg white, fresh
    1 serving Isopure Whey Protein Isolate Protein Powder Unflavored by Nature's Best - 1 Scoop (29g)
    2 serving Shakeology, Vanilla 1 Scoop (35g) (about 1/2c)
    8 serving Truvia Natural Sweetener

Tips

This turned out a bit like cake when I tried it. I'm unsure if the cooking time needs to be adjusted, or if I had too much egg or something. But, still pretty tasty, nonetheless.


Directions

DOUBLE the following recipe, or you're making about 8 servings.

1. PREHEAT the oven to 350F
2. SPRAY a 9x9" pan with non-stick spray (for one batch/8 servings), or Spray TWO 9x9" pans (for the double recipe/16 servings)

3. COMBINE:
1 c. Quick Oats
1/2 c. Protein Powder (unflavored or vanilla)
2 T Flax seed (can omit)
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
4 packets Truvia or other zero calorie sweetener

4. COMBINE SEPARATELY:
1/2 c. PB2 (can use real peanut butter but adjust the nutritional info accordingly)
2 containers apple sauce (about 1 cup)
1 tsp vanilla
1/4 cup egg whites

5. When both bowls above are well-mixed, combine, mixing well.

6. Bake in the oven for approximately 15 minutes.

7. Let cool, then cut in half both directions, then cut those 4 squares half so you have 8 rectangular "bars"

Serving Size: makes 16 bars
