Healthy Mo-tella Fudge DIY Protein Bars
These Healthy Mo-tella Fudge DIY Protein Bars are basically like Nutella protein bars — sweet, chocolatey, and hazelnutty — but without all the junky ingredients! These are no bake, easy to make, and addictive. You’d never know they’re sugar free, gluten free, dairy free, and vegan!
Ingredients
- 128g (½ cup) Roasted Hazelnut Butter **
- 1 cup + 2 tbs Unsweetened Vanilla Almond Milk
- 1 tsp Vanilla Crème-Flavored Stevia Extract
- 168g (1¼ cups) Chocolate Brown Rice Protein Powder
- 80g (⅔ cup) Oat Flour
- 3 tbs Unsweetened Dutch Processed Cocoa Powder
- ¼ tsp Salt
- ¼ cup Mini Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips (optional)
Instructions
- Line an 8x8” brownie pan with parchment paper. Set aside.
- In an electric stand mixer bowl tted with a beater attachment, add all of the ingredients. Mix on low speed until everything is fully incorporated.
- Scrape down the sides of the bowl. Mix on medium speed for one last mix. Mixture should be thick and fudgy, like cookie dough.
- Scoop the mixture into the brownie pan and atten it out. Tightly cover the pan with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
- Lift the mixture out of the pan. Slice into 12 bars. Individually wrap the protein bars in plastic sandwich baggies. Store in the refrigerator for up to 1 week or stash them in the freezer.
Recipe Notes
- **You can buy hazelnut butter online or you can make it at home. Making nut butters at home saves a TON of money, but you do need a good food processor to do it!
- Do not use whey/egg/casein protein! The mixture will be gooey and won’t solidify.
- Keeps for ~1 week in the fridge or ~3 months in a sealed sandwich baggie in the freezer.
