Protein Bars

4-Ingredient Low Carb Peanut Butter Protein Bars (Low Sugar)

By Evelyn

Do you know what the problem is with most protein bars that you find on store shelves? A lot of them taste quite awful. Sure they might be convenient as a grab-and-go snack, but I can bet you there are a lot of options out there that taste ten times better with just as many nutrients. That’s actually why I prefer to make my own homemade protein bars. In fact, one of the best tasting protein bar recipes that I’ve ever tried is this one for making 4-ingredient low carb peanut butter protein bars. They’re super easy to make, requiring only about 15 minutes of your time, but they end up tasting so freaking good. And most importantly, they’re loaded with protein and quality fats to help you squeeze those extra macros in.
