These clean, plant based protein bars are a lovely little way to boost your protein intake and easy to make with wholefood, real ingredients and using protein powders that you like and trust. I personally won’t use ones with added sucralose etc and most protein bars also have a horrendous list of ingredients or lots of prebiotics that not everyone can tolerate well so you’ve no choice really but to make your own.
I used a vanilla flavour plant protein powder and hazelnuts for flavour but these are easy to adjust to whatever taste you like so feel free to play about with your bars.

Oats have a rep for being boring but not mine!
I played around with different plant protein flavours and fruit to make my baked oats more fun and also balanced with the cashew frosting which is so easy to make & adds healthy fats to balance out the carbs in the oats and protein for a well balanced breakfast. You can even use this as a treat and make it sweeter, plus the sweetness comes from natural sources that also contain fiber.

I’ve wanted to make a good, sugar free frosting for cakes for a while now, I have finally nailed one I’m happy with. This rich, peanut butter chocolate frosting is amazing, creamy and still indulgent even though it’s refined sugar free!
I love adding this to my cakes and it’s enough for 5/6 slices depending on size. I also tested this on other people & they loved it!

These homemade, vegan, protein bars are so yummy plus do not contain weird sweeteners like Maltitol that can give you an upset tummy and are way easier & cheaper to make compared to buying expensive store bought bars!
I used a berry & PB combo flavour here but they can be easily adapted to suit your tastes.
I used plant protein, mostly pea based & whey will not work so if you’re not plant based please don’t sub this as it won’t work!

Lower carb, grain and gluten free, can be sugar free, delicious and with a rich dark chocolate topping plus vegan friendly too, these berry donuts are a treat that will satisfy your cravings and nourish you too. These are super soft and moist, they really do taste amazing and look good too with a vibrant pink colour AND use many great ingredients that are so beneficial for you!
I used a berry powder blend (goji, beet, strawberry, cherry) that a friend got for me from Home bargains, yes you can find ingredients like this in there and the coconut flour I used was from Lidl, another discount store plus ground almonds can be found in all supermarkets too so these may sound like a fancy recipe but you can access these ingredients quite easily now.
