Directions

1. Run the oats through a food processor, grinding them to produce a fine oat flour. Use a scoop to measure in the right amounts of cocoa powder and protein powder, and blend once more.

2. Drain the liquid from the dates before adding them into the food processor, and pour in the pecans, coconut, salt, and vanilla. Blend again. Pour this mixture into a bowl and add in the rice syrup. Stir well, then form into bars using your hands.

3. Transfer the bars to a greased cookie sheet, and slide the tray into the fridge. Cut into 12 equal portions and let them sit for about 3 hours before eating, and store in the freezer for up to a month!

Enjoy!

For all Vital Whey Recipes

To minimize potential damage to the fragile protein components, please take the following into consideration:

  • Avoid highly acidic fruits or juices (citrus, pineapple, kefir, etc). 
  • Avoid adding whey to any HOT liquids.

Our whey is minimally processed and it is best to avoid adding excess acid or heat within your recipe.
