Protein Bars Recipe

Ingredients

How to make it

  • Line the bottom of a 13 by 9-inch glass baking dish with parchment paper and lightly coat with canola oil. Set aside. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the protein powder, oat bran, wheat flour, wheat germ, and salt. Set aside.
  • Coarsely chop dried fruits and place in a small bowl and set aside.
  • In a third mixing bowl, whisk the tofu until smooth. Add the apple juice, brown sugar, eggs, and peanut butter, 1 at a time, and whisk to combine after each addition. Add this to the protein powder mixture and stir well to combine. Fold in the dried fruit. Spread evenly in the prepared baking dish and bake in the oven for 35 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 205 degrees F. Remove from the oven and cool completely before cutting into squares. Cut into squares and store in an airtight container for up to a week.

    Most commerically prepared egg substitutes are made up mostly of egg whites so they still are animal protein but a great alternative for those that need to watch cholesterol. Many vegans use something like a 1:1 or 2:1 ratio of liquid to cornstarch as an egg substitute. Of course, the animal protein molecule still binds together significantly much better than vegetable based proteins and that's why they are more readily used. Also, in actuality using marshmallows is also non-vegan as it uses gelatin which comes from animal collagen so many of the more diehard vegans use other emulsifiers instead, such as agar, carrageenan, pectin, or konnyaku. Anyways, aside from all that, I am most certainly am going to try your recipe. I will probably substitute the eggs, not that I am vegan myself but vegetable protein has a longer shelf life than the eggs. Thanks agains! :)

    This sounds very yummy but it still does contain animal protein by adding the eggs. Another alternative is to add melted marshmallows if you are adding the eggs to hold them together.
