Banana Chocolate Chip Protein Bars

Who doesn’t love the ease of homemade protein bars? Especially, when they are made without added preservatives and extra sugars! We are so excited to share our original protein bar recipe with you today – you (and your kids) will make this one of your favorites on the weekly rotation.

Homemade Banana Chip Protein Bar Tips:

  • Avoid unnecessary sugar, dyes, and flavors by choosing a clean protein powder. We’ve reviewed our favorite clean eating protein powders here.
  • Store in the refrigerator since these protein bars do not have any preservatives!
  • Use quality dark chocolate when making clean eating recipes that call for dark chocolate. A few of our favorites include Lindt Dark Chocolate, Enjoy Life Dark Chocolate Morsels (these are dairy-free and vegan), and Endangered Species Dark Chocolate.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 ripe medium bananas (think Banana Bread ripe)
  • 2 scoops vanilla whey protein powder
  • 2 egg whites
  • 1 TBSP Baking Powder
  • 1/4 cup almond milk, unsweetened
  • 1/4 cup natural almond butter, unsweetened
  • 1/3 cup applesauce, unsweetened
  • 1/3 cup almond meal (we used Bob’s Red Mill Almond Meal/Flour)
  • 1/3 cup coconut flour (we used Let’s Do Organic Coconut Flour)
  • 1/4 cup chopped (or chips) dark chocolate, 70% or greater

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit
  2. Combine all ingredients (except chocolate) in a large food processor to combine
  3. Spray a 9×9 baking pan with olive oil to prevent sticking
  4. Pour 1/2 of the batter into the 9×9 baking pan. Be sure to even the batter with a spatula. Spread 1/2 of the chocolate on top of the layer.
  5. Pour the remaining 1/2 of the batter on top of the previous layer, sure to cover the chocolate. Spread the remaining chocolate across the top.
  6. Bake for approximately 35 minutes

Notes

Store in the refrigerator until ready to eat

    I’m excited to try this with some variations: We are egg, dairy, and peanut/treenut free. I’ll probably use sunbutter to replace the almond butter, and I wonder if you would recommend a certain egg substitute (I usually use a chia egg, a flax egg, or applesauce) and almond flour substitute (maybe ground flax? though that might be a bit too intense)? Since these are all lower protein alternatives, I wonder if you have any other suggestions?
