Blueberry Yogurt Protein Bars

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)
  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup vanilla protein powder (or any preferred flavor)
  • 1/2 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
  • 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional, for sweetness)
  • 1/4 cup almond butter (or peanut butter)
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup chia seeds (optional, for extra texture and nutrition)
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk (or any milk of choice)

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Base: In a large mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, almond butter, honey (if using), and vanilla extract. Stir until smooth.
  2. Add the Dry Ingredients: To the same bowl, add the rolled oats, protein powder, and chia seeds (if using). Mix well to combine.
  3. Add the Blueberries: Gently fold in the blueberries, being careful not to break them up too much.
  4. Adjust the Consistency: If the mixture feels too thick, slowly add almond milk, a little at a time, until the mixture comes together but is not too runny.
  5. Press and Set: Line a baking dish (8×8 or similar) with parchment paper and press the mixture evenly into the dish.
  6. Chill: Place the dish in the fridge for at least 2 hours, or until the bars are firm and set.
  7. Cut and Serve: Once set, cut the mixture into bars or squares. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.
