Being an RDH who works 10 hour clinical days I’m always bringing quick things to eat to sustain me throughout the day and here is a new fave:

🍪Homemade Cookie Dough Protein bars
* 1 cup almond flour
* 1 cup vanilla protein powder
* ¼ cup olive oil
* 1/4 cup maple syrup
* (can use extra sugar-free maple syrup for negligible calories)
• 1 tsp vanilla
Mix and then fold in a handful (?) of chocolate chips, press into parchment paper lined bread pan.
Melt:
* ¼ cup chocolate chips with some coconut oil and spread on top.
Freeze over night then slice up!

If you cut them into 10 bars:

Each bar is about:

* 167 calories
* 14.5 g protein
* 6.5 g carbs
* 8.5 g fat

I have been trying to find the perfect homemade protein bar and the glorious thing about them is I had all of the ingredients handy in my pantry and whipped them together last night to the enjoy today 🤤🍪
