Apple Cobbler Protein Bars
(Berardi)

"I took great pains to create a P+C protein bar that is not as dry and chewy as Fido’s rubber bone. These bars provide a multi-layer gooey goodness that appeases even the most finicky of eaters. Just leave out the “protein bars” in the title if you’re feeding them to a disbeliever."

Ingredients:
1 cup oat flour
1 cup whole wheat flour
6 scoops strawberry or vanilla whey protein powder
2/3 cup nonfat plain yogurt
1 jumbo egg white
1 cup oat bran
1 cup granulated Splenda
1 cup applesauce, unsweetened
2 tbsp honey
1 large apple, chopped
2 tsp vanilla extract
2 tsp cinnamon
˝ teaspoon salt
1 tbsp olive oil

Instructions:
Preheat oven to 350-degrees F.

Combine these in a large bowl: oat flour, whole wheat flour, salt, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, and most of the Splenda, leaving a couple of tablespoons for later. Stir these dry ingredients together.

Put the yogurt, egg white, vanilla extract, and olive oil in a blender, and turn it on low. Add the protein powder 1 scoop at a time, until thoroughly blended. Pour this mixture into the bowl, and stir together until it has the consistency of dough.

Coat a 8X12 inch baking pan with cooking spray, then pour the mixture into the pan, flattening it up to the edges.

Next, mix the applesauce, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, chopped apple, and honey together, and pour over the top of the dough mixture in the pan, spreading evenly.

Sprinkle the oat bran over the top, until thoroughly and evenly covered, then sprinkle the remaining Splenda over the top.

Bake for 15 minutes at 350-degrees F, and then switch to broil for 3-4 minutes, just until top is slightly browned. Be careful not to overcook.

Makes 12 bars.

...*must.make.more.* I really enjoyed them. I suppose I could use making them as an excuse to get this new mixing bowl I've been eyeing.

Me: Look what I found on sale, baby.
Hubby: What do you need with more bowls?
Me: I'm making those apple cobbler protein bars again.
Hubby: Well, hurry up and use that new bowl!! Do you need more of them?!

Oh, I can see it now. :lol:

I keep meaning to make these, but I need to buy more vanilla protein powder first.

One quick question-- do you think wheat bran would work instead of oat bran? I have some wheat bran that's just sitting here unused...

Wheat bran should work. I used wheat germ and it was fine.


I am making more of these right now and think I should warn everyone who wants to make them......working the dough is tough. It is so worth it though. :p

Kiwi - The book is called Gourmet Nutrition - You can order it from www.johnberardi.com. But be warned - the portion sizes are huge&#33; You&#39;ll probably have to halve most of the recipes.

Thanks for that link Ileen - I&#39;ve just bookmarked it. :clap:

PS - the Apple Cobber Protein Bars are awesome&#33; :)

Wonder how I'll 'tweak' them to fit into my 'Celiac' world. Hmmmm....anyone make anything like these (well, probably not as GOOD) that has no wheat/gluten in them?

Are you gluten-free as well? I have a wheat allergy and do most things gluten-free myself. It's a fun task. Let me know what you find.
