The Healthiest Homemade Protein Bars Ever (Very low sugar!)
It can honestly be pretty tricky to find a good protein bar that not only tastes great, but can also be considered 100% healthy. All too often you can have one but not the other. That’s exactly why I like to make my own keto-friendly high protein bars from scratch, especially when they’re made with great recipes like this one for making the healthiest homemade protein bars ever. They taste incredible thanks to adding things like monk fruit sweetened maple syrup, chocolate protein powder, and sugar free dark chocolate chips. On top of that, they feature three different kinds of healthy seeds (chia, sunflower, and sesame) which means they’re also packed full of quality heart healthy fats.
