I just made two pans of these and the “dough” was delicious. I cleaned out the food processor with my fingers!!! I did one batch with a little maple syrup for sweetness and some chocolate chips and goji berries for my husband. For my batch, I used apricots and cranberries. I am hoping he loves them! Trying to curb his CLIF bar addiction. Not only are they expensive, but they are loooooaded with sugar.

I just made your recipe with the dried cranberries, 1 tsp cinnamon & 1 dessertspoon of cocoa & it is honestly the most delicious thing I have ever eaten in my life. We are trying to not eat all of them at once !! Thankyou so much

It can be as much or as little as you like. I’d say I use a heaping tablespoon, maybe 2 tablespoons. It’s imprecise though – just as much protein as you prefer.

Just a question – how much is a scoop of protein powder. I have some yellow split pea protein powder but there’s no scoop in it . Thankyou :) Great recipe by the way – I added 1/2 tsp cinnamon & some berries (as the additional fruit) & I love it – the kids are yet to do a taste test ….

Nice! I have been making my own energy bars and gels (for running) for a little while now. I tried your recipe but added coconut and used goji berries for the dried fruit and Chocolate Vegans Protein Plus for the protein. YUM!! :)

Hooray for this easy recipe! Thank you! Also glad to see all those dollars not going towards GM. :)

Yum! My little vegan loves to help with food prep but is petrified of the blender or any appliance that makes loud noises. I’ve made a version of this with a few tablespoons of tahini in it too. Protein powder and molasses are a good idea, I’m going to try that next time.
