Lemon Protein Bars

These bars come from Jamie Eason's recipe. With a few tweaks, I've made them 100% clean and they are SOOOOO good. I will make these over and over and over!! The high protein content make them great for people that are trying to build muscle (that SHOULD be everyone!) because they keep you full and support muscle growth and recovery. I used the generic vanilla whey isolate protein powder from The Vitamin Shoppe. I'm so excited to have found this recipe!

Ingredients:

• 1 C oat flour
• 2 scoops vanilla whey protein powder
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp baking soda
• the zest of one lemon
• 1/3 C freshly squeezed lemon juice
• 4 egg whites
• 1/2 Cup baking stevia
• 1 C applesauce

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350. Mix dry ingredients in a small bowl. Mix remaining ingredients in a larger bowl and stir in dry ingredients. The batter will be thin! Pour batter into a greased 8x8 pan and bake 23-30 minutes (done when a toothpick comes out clean from the center). Cut into 16 squares and ENJOY!
