If you like Quest Bars, White Chocolate, Coconut or Confetti-cake batter then this bar is for you. It’s one heavenly combination of flavours.

PB Chocolate Swirl Brownie Protein Bars

These are VERY fudgey, chocolatey and dense..like a brownie should be. I called them “Brownie Protein Bars” because I prefer to eat larger portions as my breakfast, but 1/2 of a serving makes a great dessert and = 1 regular size brownie.

I hope you love these as much as I do!

~1/3 cup(80g)canned pumpkin
~3 tbsp(1.5oz) unsweetened applesauce

Directions: Preheat your oven to 350* F, spray a regular bread/loaf pan with pam. Whisk together dry ingredients(not including Truvia) in a large bowl, set aside. In a medium size bowl, lightly beat together all of your dry ingredients with a fork until combined. Fold the wet ingredients into the dry until a batter forms, now add your Truvia(this way you can add more or less to taste). Bake for 20-25min, test with a toothpick, you want it to be almost clean(DO NOT over-bake, they will be slightly underdone but will set as they cool in the hot pan). Remove from the oven and cool in the pan on a wire rack before slicing into 8 squares. Serve warm or freeze them for later! They may even be better after being left at room temp. for a day. Enjoy!

Low-fat Jam-Filled High Fibre Protein Muffins

These are one of those muffins that transform overnight..The next day they are even better and more moist. Trust me, if you can wait, it will be worth it. Loaded with fibre & packed with protein, muffins for breakfast is just what the doctor ordered…

Makes 6 large or 12 medium muffins.

Recipe:

• 1 1/2 cups wheat bran
• 1 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk
• 1/2 cup unsweetened apple sauce
• 1 whole egg
• 1/2 tsp molasses (heat the container for a few secs. to make it easier to pour)
• 2-3 tbsp truvia or more to taste
• 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 1/2 scoop Cellucor Peanut Butter Marshmallow Whey (51g)
• 2 tbsp all purpose flour (15g)
• 6 tbsp whole wheat flour (45g)
• 2 tbsp milled flax seed (20g)
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp salt (scant)
• 3 tbsp no sugar added raspberry jam (1/2 tbsp per large muffin or 1 tsp per regular-size muffin)

Optional: 1 cup(140g) fresh or frozen raspberries.

Optional topping: Melted peanut butter/PB2 mixed with a little water/vanilla/truvia to make a “PB & J” version.

Directions:

Preheat your oven to 375*.  Mix the wheat bran w/ your almond milk and let it soak for about 10min. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine your wet ingredients and in a another medium bowl, combine all of your dry ingredients except the truvia sweetener. Now, whisk your bran mixture into the other wet ingredients and fold in your dry mixture. Also fold in the raspberries if you choose and scoop the batter into 6-12 sprayed(with pam) or lined muffin trays. Add a spoonful of the jam to the centre of each muffin before baking. Place in the oven for 15-20min or until the tops are springy and a toothpick comes out relatively clean(ignore the jam on the toothpick, just look for any sign of wet batter!). After baking you CAN eat immediately BUTTT I recommend waiting a day to let the muffins rest and become extra moist and delicious! Enjoy 🙂
