Time 20m

Yield 16 Bars

Number Of Ingredients 5

1/2 cup skim milk
1 cup natural-style peanut butter or 1 cup low-fat peanut butter
1 tablespoon honey
1 1/4-1 1/2 cups of whey protein powder (I use vanilla, but I'm sure chocolate would work too)
2 cups dry uncooked oatmeal (not quick cooking kind)

Steps:

  • Combine PB, honey and milk in a pot.
  • Warm over low heat.
  • Add the protein powder and mix well.
  • Add the oats.
  • You don't want to cook it, just warm it through so you can stir it.
  • Add more milk if it is too thick to stir.
  • Press in a 9" x 13" pan.
  • Let the bars sit until cool, and cut into 16 equal sized bars.
  • Wrap each bar in foil or Saran wrap and store in plastic baggies.
  • They do not need refrigeration.
