Bake-Free Pancake Mix Protein Bars

Pancake Mix, Matcha, Powdered Peanut Butter, Low-Cal Sauce, Chia

These protein bars are made from our pancake mix and a few other healthy ingredients. They're high in protein and good fats, making them a good breakfast or snack option. Plus, they don’t require baking!

Ingredients

• 1 1/2c Mixed nuts and seeds of your choice (I used a mix of pumpkin, sunflower, sesame, chopped walnuts and almonds)
• 1T NZProtein Chia seeds
• 1/4c Cacao nibs
• 2 Scoops NZProtein Pancake Mix
• 1/4c NZProtein Low-Cal Maple Syrup
• 2T Peanut butter (I used NZProtein Powdered Peanut Butter made up)
• 2T Melted coconut oil
• Optional: 1t NZProtein Matcha powder

Instructions

1. Line a square tin with baking paper.
2. Roughly chop the larger nuts and add them to a large bowl.
3. Add the rest of the ingredients and mix together with a wooden spoon.
4. Transfer the mixture to the lined baking tin and press firmly into the corners with the back of a spoon. Ensure the mix is spread evenly.
5. Set in the freezer for 1 hour or in the fridge until firm.
6. Remove, cut to size and enjoy!

*Can be drizzled with melted chocolate or peanut butter for extra sweetness!
