Healthy Protein bars -choc banana flavor

[G-Force]

i like protein bars for convenience but hate all the sugars, fats, colouring and preservatives they put in them to make them nutritionally shite

this is a healthy recipe for a protein bar mixture - it actually comes out more looking like a cake but u can cut them into pieces and take them with you to work nice and easily as they stick together well and dont crumble everywhere



INGREDIENTS

300g banana (raw)
1 tsp ground cinnamon
2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
12 large egg whites
4oz skim milk
200g whole grain oats
1/3 cup splenda
90g chocolate whey


DIRECTIONS

mix all into large mixing bowl. pour into non stick cake pan - bake at 150 degrees Celsius until firm (around 25mins). leave until cold then cut to size

i cut mine into 8 slices

NUTRITIONAL INFO per slice (if cut into 8slices)


PRO: 21g
CARB: 27g
FAT: less than 2g


they dont taste as good as regular pro bars but they are a hell of a lot healthier and very easy to make

ENJOY

about how many bananas is 300G ??

[Pinkvelvet]

That sounds soooo good!!! I'll have to give'm a whirl....

Mike...I think one large banana is about 7 oz...or 198 g.

[smokethedays]

just buy a little over half a pound bro.

[G-Force]

3 small banana's came to exactly 300g as luck would have it - otherwise i wouldve had to mess around with cutting them in half and what not

good post, I'll give em' a try... thanks G.

[STRANGE]

Thanks Guys im deff gona try these

BUT what about calories????

[Pinkvelvet]

I'm thinking cals would be roughly....

21 g of pro x 4 cal/g = 84 cals come from pro

27 g of carb x 4 cal/g = 108 cals come from carb

I'll say 2 g of fat x 9 cal/g = 18 cals come from fat....

Total cals = 210 approximately

Not bad...

Is that for the whole batch or each bar????

[Pinkvelvet]

Thats based on the info from G-Force...suggestion of 8 slices...but, how big they are...I'm not sure...

As far as I can tell...if its 8 slices...the calories would be for one of the eight slices

i found a nicer way to eat them - tastier and more cals

i heated up one slice in the microwave and added 200g non fat Bio-Yogurt, a handful of blackberries and one scoop of whey (i used butter cream toffee which is amazing)

the totals for this dish were:

PRO: 55g
CARBS: 45g
FAT: 2g

KCALS: 418

i had this for breakfast this morning - really nice

give it a try
