Fruit & Nut Protein Bars
Nuts
Vegetarian
Delicious, sweet bites of fruit and nut granola bar made with your usual protein powder and a yummy yoghurt topping.
These Fruit & Nut Protein Bars are sweet little healthy treats with a hit of protein. Protein bars can be expensive so why not make your own with left over seeds nut or fruits laying around in your cupboard for a fraction of the cost? Made with natural wholesome ingredients and your usual protein powder.
The natural yoghurt topping is also a little protein boost and makes them just so delicious. These bars remind me of the almond and apricot Eat Natural bars which I used to eat all of the time, I seem to have accidentally recreated these. Maybe I was subliminally craving one.
You can make this fruit & nut granola bars recipe your own by using what ever nuts, seeds, fruits or even chocolate you have in your cupboard.
The protein powder
I used a vanilla flavoured protein powder which I found works well with the yoghurt however you could use chocolate or any other flavour. Use a clean good quality protein powder for best nutrition.
