Discard Whey Protein Bars

After making homemade yogurt the other day, I was left with a bunch of leftover liquid whey. Wanting to use it up all at once, I created these protein bars. They have a base of liquid whey, are sweetened with sugar free syrup and liquid monk fruit, and get their protein from powdered peanut butter and casein protein powder. The result is 12 protein bars each with 13 g of protein in just over 100 calories. They also have 5 g of fiber each, are low in fat, and contain no added sugar.

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350F. Line a 9x13" pan with parchment paper. Lightly grease it with oil

Step 2

Beat your egg in a large bowl. Whisk in the wet ingredients - liquid whey, sugar free syrup, vanilla extract, and liquid monk fruit

Step 3

Using a silicone spatula, stir in all the dry ingredients - powdered peanut butter, casein protein powder, cocoa powder, psyllium husk, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt

Step 4

Let the batter rest in the bowl for about 10 minutes for the psyllium to thicken the batter

Step 5

Transfer the batter to the pan. Bake at 350F for 1 hour, or until a toothpick comes out clean

Step 6

Let cool in the pan at room temperature for 30 minutes before cutting into 12 protein bars

Step 7

Store the protein bars in an airtight bag in the freezer, separating each one with a piece of parchment paper
