Homemade Cookies and Cream Protein Bar!

Did you see these COOKIE N’ CREAM PROTEIN BARS in my Instagram stories? Well if you follow me on there you probably did…and that texture was unbeatable!

I recently polled you guys on Instagram asking what your favorite protein bar flavor was….and Cookies n’ Cream was at the top of the list! So I delivered!

Of course I had to make a healthy version, excluding all gut irritants, added sugar, and keeping it nut free, low carb, paleo, keto, and SIBO friendly. It’s a win win win!


Before you make these, I urge you to compare these ingredients with those other “cookies n’ cream” protein bars out there, and the ingredients will SHOCK you!

Below are ingredients of a popular Cookies n’ Cream protein bar:

Protein Blend (Whey Protein Isolate, Milk Protein Isolate), Isomalto-Oligosaccharides (Prebiotic Fiber), Water, Almonds, Cocoa Butter, Erythritol. Contains less than 2% of the following: Cocoa Powder, Natural Flavors, Coconut Oil, Sea Salt, Sunflower Lecithin, Dextrin, Baking Soda, Steviol Glycosides (Stevia), Sucralose.

 

Now compare my version below with 5 simple, clean, easy to digest ingredients.

Ingredients:
4 scoops of my x Nuzest Digestive Support Cacao Protein Powder
1/2 cup of Santa Barbara Chocolate Red Cacao Powder (code: lilsipper)
1/2 cup + 1 Tbsp water
1/4 cup Sunbutter (this keeps it nut free, but you can also use any nut butter)
Artisana Organics coconut butter (code: lilsipper)

Method:
Mix protein powder (no substitutes) with cacao powder, then add water. Mix well, then add Sunbutter and mix again. It should have a thick, “play-dough” consistency. *If it’s too dry, add a Tbsp more water. If it’s too watery, add more protein powder.
Coarsely chop coconut butter into large chunks and gently mix into batter. Transfer batter into a small dish and press down firmly and refrigerate 1 hour. Cut into desired shape and enjoy!
