Homemade protein bars

… and it’s important to have some source of protein within an hour of working out. And trust me, there is no protein in scones!
So I started making these delicious protein bars for myself to have after my workouts, and soon lots of my mums were asking for the recipe or where could they buy them. Recently I brought them to class and tested them out on my personal guinea pigs! They went down a treat, and so my homemade healthy protein bars will be available to purchase after class every day.
If you want to make them yourself, here is the recipe, and nutritional info. Happy clean baking.

5 overripe bananas
100g oats
2 tbsp peanut butter (from health food store only – no sugar or oil)
