Ingredients
Base:
- 2 cups Crispy Brown Rice Cereal
- 1 cup Old Fashioned Rolled Oats
- 93g (3 scoops) Vanilla Whey Protein Powder
- ¼ cup Ground Flaxseed
- ¼ tsp Salt
- 3 tbs Coconut Oil (melted)
- ½ cup Pure Maple Syrup
- 2 tsp Vanilla Extract
- ¾ tsp Liquid Stevia Extract
Jelly Layer:

Crumble:
- ½ cup Old Fashioned Rolled Oats
- 2 tsp Coconut Oil (melted)
- 1 tsp Pure Maple Syrup
- 10 drops Liquid Stevia Extract
Instructions
For the Base and Jelly Layer:
- Blend the brown rice cereal and oats in a blender until it turns into a flour, then pour into a stand mixer bowl. Add the protein powder, flax, and salt, and mix on low speed.
- Add the melted coconut oil, maple syrup, vanilla and stevia. Stir on low until fully incorporated.
- Line an 8" brownie pan with parchment paper both ways and dump the mixture into the pan. Press it down to flatten.
- Scoop the fruit spread onto the base and spread it out.
For the Crumble:
- In a blender, pulse the oats until they're just broken up. Pour into a bowl.
- With a fork, mix in the coconut oil, maple syrup, and stevia. Grab a handful of the crumbles and sprinkle over the bars to your liking (I don't like too much... I like to see the jam). Refrigerate for 1 hour to firm up. Slice and serve!
