How is everyone's New Year going so far? Good I hope!
Here's a quick yummy granola bar recipe for ya!
I got this recipe from http://toneitup.com/ I really love this website.. they have some great recipes and workout videos so check em out!!
Granola bars ~
1 cup apricots
1 cup oatmeal
1 cup honey
1 cup peanut butter
3 scoops vanilla whey protein powder
mix 1st 3 ingredients together, then heat up peanut butter add in honey and van protein mix well. add into the dry mixture and pat into a greased dish. put in fridge to set for 45 mins.
Slice and wrap for easy on the go eats!!
I only made 1/2 the batch this recipe makes.. I didn't have enough of some ingredients. Like the honey for instance, I had almost a half cup, so I topped my 1/2 cup off with some agave nectar.. I think that's why my bars never got really hard even after the 45 mins in the fridge. And I forgot the vanilla protein powder in mine. I added in some dried blueberries as well. They are still really good and I will be tweaking this recipe to make them just right for me.. thinking maybe less honey and a little coconut oil to also help harden them up! well see. I will for sure let you know how it goes!
I also have a workout for you!
