PART 2
Protien Nutrtion Bar
A great protein nutrition bar at a mere fraction of the cost of packaged protein bars but none of their glycerin, preservatives, or sugar! These easy-to-make low-fat protein bars are high in fiber content and taste great with a spread of natural peanut butter across the top. with a protein drink, they make a well-balanced meal.
8 minutes to prepare
1. Preheat oven to 325°. Mix all dry ingredients in bowl and blend well.
2. In separate bowl, combine eggwhites, orange juice, applesauce, and sugar-free syrup and stir until well blended.
3. Stir liquid mixture into dry ingredients and mix well. The consistency will be thick and similar to cookie dough.
4. Spread batter onto a baking sheet coated with non-stick spray. Use a 9x12 baking dish if you prefer thicker bars. Bake until edges are crisp and browned (about 15 minutes depending on bar thickness)
5. Cut into 10 bars and refrigerate in airtight container.

TIPs
1.If you find you want a more moist consistency, add a little more applesauce to the recipe for softness.
2.Baking with applesauce: Did you know you can replace the oil in a recipe with an equal measure of applesauce? Applesauce will add the same moisture but not the added fat and it won’t alter the flavor.
3.Bars may also be frozen and thawed in microwave before eating.
