My husband and I are obsessed with Rx bars. They are all natural protein bars made from only a few ingredients and no added sugars. The base for all of their bars is a mixture of dates, almonds, protein powder and figs. I decided to make my own version, not that theirs are not healthy, but I just prefer things homemade!
I made two variations, one coconut cashew and another cinnamon almond. Of the Rx bar flavors, the cocoa coconut and coffee cocoa are my favorites! I would have tried to replicate those but I only have vanilla flavored protein powder at the moment and those would require unflavored or chocolate, so I am saving those for next time!
Coconut Cashew:
1 cup dates
1 cup cashews
1 scoop protein powder
1/3-1/2 cup figs (taste preference)
1/3-1/2 cup coconut (also a taste preference)
2 tablespoons coconut oil
Put everything in a food processor and process until well blended and moldable. This took a few minutes in my processor. Pour into a loaf pan (or 8'8 pan if you like them thinner) and press down. Refrigerate until set then cut into bars and wrap individually.
Cinnamon Almond:
1 cup dates
1 cup almonds
1 scoop protein powder
1/3-1/2 cup figs
1 teaspoon cinnamon
