I developed this recipe when one of my daughters was a kimpeturin and she needed something healthful and satisfying to eat. They were devoured so quickly that I had to make a second batch!
As we are well aware, store-bought protein bars are quite expensive. These are easy to put together, and you can have a variety of flavors by swapping the nut butters, the protein powder, and the nuts. They are filling, nutritious, and absolutely delicious. Go for them!
Yields 18 bars
1/2 cup Gefen Almond Butter
1/4 cup Gefen Natural Peanut Butter
1/4 cup honey, preferably organic (if you like it sweeter, use 1/3 cup)
1 tablespoon Tonnelli Avocado Oil
1/4 teaspoon salt (preferably Himalayan salt)
1/2 cup protein powder (see tip)
3 tablespoons good-quality cocoa powder
1 cup rolled oats, toasted if desired for about 5 to 7 minutes
3/4 cup Rice Krispies cereal (I used brown crisped rice)
1 tablespoon chia seeds
1 tablespoon ground flaxseed
5 Brazil nuts, roasted and finely chopped
Line a nine-inch (23-centimeter) square pan with Gefen Parchment Paper. Set aside.
In a large microwaveable bowl, place the almond butter, peanut butter, and honey. Microwave for 30 seconds and stir together. Add the rest of the ingredients, aside from the nuts. Mix together very well (you may have to use your hands to do this). Fold in nuts until fully incorporated.
Press the mixture evenly into the prepared pan, and place the pan in the freezer for about 30 minutes. If it’s there longer, bring to room temperature before cutting. Cut into 18 bars. Store in a container in the freezer. They taste best straight from the freezer.

Can Quick oats be used?
Rolled oats are better for baking and cooking because they retain their texture better than quick oats.
