Why You’ll Love These Bars
These no-bake protein bars are naturally:
- Vegan
- Kornfri
- Mjölkfritt
- Paleo-friendly using almond butter.
- Keto-friendly using Monk fruit liquid sweetener and sugar-free chocolate chips.
Ingredienser och ersättningar
All you need to make a batch of these delicious protein bars are:
- Jordnötssmör - Use natural, fresh, and drippy peanut butter or homemade peanut butter. It means that the ingredients listed on the jar should only include peanuts and salt. Don’t use peanut butter with added sugar or added oil.
- Lönnsirap – You can use other liquid sweeteners as well. The best vegan liquid sweeteners are agave syrup, coconut nectar, or brown rice syrup for a low-GI option.
- Kokosolja – Or melted cocoa butter or melted vegan butter. Avoid using olive oil or vegetable oils that are not necessarily good for you but also soften the bars and add a strange aftertaste to the recipe.
- Vanilj extrakt – This is optional since the protein powder is already flavored with vanilla, but I always like to say there’s never enough vanilla in recipes!
- Växtbaserat vaniljproteinpulver – We tried the recipe with vanilla pea protein powder, almond, and peanut powder work as well.
- Mandelmjöl – use ultra-fine golden almond flour for the best texture and color. Almond meal is coarse and makes the bars dark and grainy. It’s safe to eat without baking. Another option is to make hemlagat havremjöl in the same amount, but it comes with a slight variation in texture. Oat flour often makes the bars slightly dryer and crumbly.
- kokosnöt Mjöl – this is a great high-fiber flour to make vegan, gluten-free protein bars. As above, add oat flour as a swap but for a different texture.
- Mini mörka chokladbitar – feel free to use a sugar-free brand or any chips you love. My recommendation is to use mini chocolate chips because they distribute perfectly into the batter, and you enjoy crunchy bites of chocolate at each bite.
How To Make Cookie Dough Protein Bars
These cookie dough protein bars take just 15 minutes to prepare and enjoy!
There’s nothing easier than making homemade protein bars.
- First, prepare two mixing bowls. In one bowl, whisk all dry ingredients until evenly combined.
- In another bowl, stir peanut butter, maple syrup, melted coconut oil, and vanilla until they form a sticky, shiny paste.
- Finally, combine the dry ingredients with the wet ingredients and knead by hand to squeeze and bring the ingredients together. You should be able to form a cookie dough ball. If too dry, add a teaspoon of extra melted coconut, this happens sometimes with some types of protein powder that contain more grams of fiber or protein per serving.
- Stir the chocolate chips when the dough is at room temperature, not in contact with hot coconut oil or you end up with melted chocolate in the bar.
- Press the soft protein cookie dough batter into a loaf pan 9 x 5 inches covered with parchment paper slightly oiled with coconut oil.
- Finally, refrigerate the pan for 1 hour before slicing. Of course, if you can’t wait to eat them, freeze the pan for 10 minutes to set the bar fast.
More Protein Please!
If you slice the bars into 9 bars as recommended in the recipe card below, each bar gets 10 grams of protein per serving.
To boost the protein per serving even higher, you can either:
- Cut into 8 bars – This brings the total to 12 grams of protein per bar.
- Use a higher-protein powder.
- Add chia seeds or hemp seeds – both are high in växtbaserat protein och hälsosamma fetter.
Förvaringsanvisningar
These protein bars can be stored for up to 5 days in an airtight box in the refrigerator. You can also freeze the recipe for later and thaw the bars one hour before serving at room temperature.
Allergibyten
There are always options to adapt this protein bar recipe to your dietary requirements or food allergies.
- Nötfri – use sunflower seed butter or tahini instead of peanut butter. Swap the almond flour for oat flour.
- Sugar-free keto protein bars – use sugar-free chocolate chips and Monk fruit liquid sweetener.
- Coconut allergies – use melted cocoa butter instead of coconut oil and replace the coconut flour with 2-3 times more almond flour or oat flour.
Smaker
You can easily customize these peanut butter protein bars to create a range of different protein bar flavors.
While most dark chocolates are vegan and chips taste amazing, we have more ideas for you to try. Pick one or two of the add-ons below and replace the chocolate chips with some of these to create fun flavors.
- Hackade nötter – like almonds, pecans walnuts.
- Frön – hemp seeds, chia seeds, sesame seeds.
- Strimlad kokosnöt
- Frystorkade frukter like raspberries or blueberries.
- Swap the vanilla extract for natural banana extract, caramel extract, or coconut extract.

I have pea protein but it’s unflavoured.
