No-Bake Banana Nut Vegan Protein Bars

5 from 1 review

Ingredients

Scale

2 ripe bananas

1 scoop vanilla vegan protein powder (I use Promix Vegan Vanilla Protein—code HEALTHYHELPER saves $$!)

2 tbsp coconut flour or almond flour

1/4 cup almond butter or peanut butter

1/4 cup raw almonds, chopped (or substitute walnuts or peanuts!)

1 tsp vanilla extract

1/2 tsp cinnamon

1/2 cup rolled oats

1 tbsp date syrup, optional for added sweetness (code HEALTHYHELPER saves $$!)

Optional toppings: Sliced bananas, chopped mixed nuts

Instructions

  • Blend the Ingredients:
    Combine all ingredients in a food processor and blend until fully combined. Leave some small chunks of nuts for added texture.
  • Shape the Mixture:
    Transfer the mixture onto parchment paper and press into a rectangular shape.
  • Add Toppings:
    If using sliced bananas or extra nuts, press them gently onto the top of the rectangle.
  • Refrigerate:
    Place the mixture in the refrigerator for at least one hour to firm up.
  • Slice into Bars:
    Remove the chilled mixture, slice into 8 bars, and wrap each bar in plastic wrap for storage.
  • Store:
    Keep the bars in the refrigerator for up to a week or in the freezer for longer shelf life.

Notes

If you’re not a fan of almonds and almond butter, you can use peanut butter and peanuts or walnuts instead! Or a mix of all three like I do.
