HIGH-FIBER, HIGH-PROTEIN BREAKFAST BARS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line an 8x8-inch baking dish with aluminum foil, letting foil hang down over the sides of the pan; spray pan with cooking spray.
• Stir oats, wheat germ, flax seed, protein powder, cinnamon, and salt together in a bowl. Mash bananas in a separate large bowl and stir 1/4 cup Jif® peanut butter, honey, and vanilla extract into bananas, mixing well. Stir dry ingredients into banana mixture and spread into the prepared baking dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Spread 1/4 cup natural peanut butter over top.
• Continue baking until lightly browned on the edges and set, 10 more minutes. Let cool in the pan and lift bars onto a work surface using aluminum foil as handles. Cut into bars, wrap in plastic wrap, and store in refrigerator.

PROTEIN-PACKED BREAKFAST BARS RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
• To make the flax eggs, combine the flax meal and water in a small bowl and mix well. Set aside for 10 minutes to gel.
• In a large bowl, combine the oats, quinoa, baking powder, salt, maple syrup, coconut oil, vanilla, flax eggs, and bananas, and mix until well-combined.
• Divide the base dough equally between 4 medium bowls.
• Add the peanut butter and chocolate chips to 1 bowl and mix until combined.
• Add the apple, walnuts, cinnamon, and nutmeg to another bowl and mix until combined.
• Add the carrots, cinnamon, nutmeg, and almond butter to another bowl and mix until combined.
• Add the almond butter, strawberries, raspberries, and blueberries to the last bowl and mix until combined.
• Grease 2 9x13-inch (23x33-cm) baking pans with nonstick spray. Transfer the bar mixtures to the pans, packing each mixture into half of a pan with a spoon or spatula.
• Bake for 25-30 minutes, until the edges are slightly golden brown.
• Remove the pans from the oven and let the bars cool for 20 minutes, then refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 5 days. Gently cut each flavor into 6 bars, then remove from the pans with a spatula.

HIGH PROTEIN/HIGH FIBER CEREAL BARS YOUR KIDS WILL EAT!

Steps:

• Combine cereal, soynuts and cranberries in an extra-large mixing bowl and set aside.
• Spray a 9x13 baking dish with nonstick spray and set aside.
• Spray a microwave-safe bowl (glass seems to work best) with non-stick cooking spray. Pour in marshmallows, butter and vanilla (I like to use extra vanilla). Microwave on high for 1-3 minutes until melted. I take it out when the marshmallows start to look puffy and stir it well.
• When everything is well melted and combined, pour the marshmallow mixture over the dry ingredients. Stir with a spoon sprayed with nonstick cooking spray - work quickly! - until all ingredients are well combined.
• Pour (plop!) mixture into baking dish. Using a piece of wax paper large enough to cover the dish, press the mixture tightly and evenly into the bottom of the pan.
• Allow to set before cutting - will set quicker in the fridge or about 2 hours on the counter. For measurement purposes here, I cut my pan in half lengthwise and then each 'square' is cut into a tick-tack-toe grid providing 18 uniform-sized bars.
• Enjoy!
