Home made, fat and carb FREE protein bars (pics inside)

Metamucil = inulin

I got a tub of the clear flavorless one and made these again just last night. They have become my go to dessert option

What a success my bars

Yeah they are the perfect sweet snack/dessert for low carbers
altho', I'm a fan of the protein rolls too.

Last time I made them I cooked them a lil too much and they came out a bit dry
and because of that, I found another application for them: make big-ish crumble
and put them into greek yogurt.. mmmhh sweet

Also FYI, be careful when you pick up the Metamucil. Some are psylium husk and some are inulin. Be sure to read the ingredient label. The one I got has just inulin in it.

Trying these for sure

Yeah, I haven't found one that's pure inulin yet. Psyllium contains inulin, though, so I may just compromise.

I found some a few days ago, same stuff you posted Josh (thanks again to both you and AutoKal!), and made some bars. I added 3T of Sugar-Free Gingerbread Torani Syrup. Gingerbread Protein Bars FTW!

i made em, they were a tad dry.

i think i baked a little too much.

i used almond meal instead of zsweet. and whole eggs instead of whites. and ***e2% instead of 0%

wasnt bad at all though. i also tossed in cacao nibs for chocolaty crunch.

Your most likely better off using just the whites (not that yolks are bad) just that whites are typically used when cooking. Save the yolks and add them to an omelette later on

Almond meal instead if stevia? Thats just weird! lol... The stevia was the sweetener, I use splenda becuase it is what I have. You can prolly use some torani syrup but I cant imagine almond meals being a good replacement. Possibly you can switch the inulin for almond meal? But other than that I would leave it out.

None of the ones I made were dry.. Try again with whites and no almond meal and let us know how it turns out. If you want more fat I am sure you can prolly pan fry them (like pancakes) in some coconut oil or just spread some nut butter on top of them.

Where do u get inulin?

This stinks I'm home
Sick right now.. Going on a cruise next weekend! And only have one flavor of protein lol... Cappuccino hah ugh. My gf wants to bake ginger bread and I'm asking her to get all this random stuff from the store lol

[houstontexas]

I will definitely be trying these soon as I'm going to have my wife buy the ingredients when she goes shopping. I'm going to add a few tbsp of PB2 powder into the mixture. It should fit in there well I think.

[bigintensions]

Can you make them without insulin?

[bigintensions]

I mean inulin

[houstontexas]

Would it turn out the same with casein?

Probably be a bit thicker, but it should still work.
