Almond, Oats & Grains protein bar

  

I was really in the mood for nutty, hearty, whole grain protein bars so i dug through my cabinets for some stuff. I really felt like I was on a clean out my cabinet adventure because in the process it was like... "ehhh I'll finish off those nuts and throw some of these in and oh yeah Ill use that too..." Aside from these being a really high calorie snack they came out super tasty!

Ingredients:

1c oatmeal
1/2c coconut shreds
1/4c almond meal
1/2c almond slices
1/3c vanilla whey protein
1/4c ground flax
1/4c chia seeds
1/2c peanut butter
2 tbsp honey
2 tbsp agave
2 egg whites
1/4 c almond milk

For these you can pretty much just add any nut mixture that you desire as long as he keeps the portions the same.

In a bowl mix together all the dry ingredients then incorporate the wet ones. 

Mix well and press into an 8 x 8 baking pan. 

Bake at 350 for 15 minutes.

If you want them and little drier and crunchier slice them, and place them on a baking sheet spread it out for another 5 to 10 minutes.

Makes 8 Tasty bars!

Because of the high calorie count, this not not the best between meal snack choice.Save these for those long run days, or they are great to take on a hike or a long bike ride. 

Enjoy!
