Low Carb Protein Bars

Thick, chewy, and with 14 grams of protein each, these low carb protein bars are a snacking savior. They take ten minutes to make and have just 3 grams of net carbs. Watch the video below to see how I make it in my kitchen!

Ingredients

1 cup almond butter smooth and creamy
1/3 cup keto maple syrup * See notes
1/2 cup coconut flour
1 cup protein powder

Instructions

Line an 8 x 8-inch pan with parchment paper and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, mix the coconut flour and protein powder.
In a microwave-safe bowl or on the stovetop, melt the almond butter with the keto maple syrup until combined. Add to the dry ingredients and mix until combined. If the mixture is too thick, slowly add some water or milk until workable and smooth.
Transfer the mixture to the lined pan and press firmly in place. Refrigerate for around 30 minutes or until it's firm.
Using a sharp knife, slice into bars.

Notes

Protein powder brands: Any protein powder with 2 grams or fewer carbs per serving works. I like using Isopure or Optimum casein protein powders.
Chocolate layer: I like to add 1/2 cup melted sugar-free chocolate chips (as pictured), but that is optional.
