I really enjoy store-bought protein bars but a recently discovered almond allergy has taken those off the table. So, I’ve been trying to make my own protein bars for a long time now, and every once in a while I’ll get close…and then something will be off. This is the by far the best version I’ve come up with – and it’s actually the easiest!

The homemade version of these is softer (needs to be refrigerated when stored), and not so chewy. It is, however, super delicious and only contains 2 net carbs per serving!

Print Low Carb Peanut Butter Cheesecake Protein Bars Prep Time: 15 minutes Total Time: 15 minutes Author: Liz MacDowell Yield: 6 bars Serving Size: 1 bar Calories per serving: 205 Fat per serving: 13.5g Carbs per serving: 4g total (2g net) Protein per serving: 17g Fiber per serving: 2g A super simple, low carb, sugar free protein bar you can make at home! Ingredients 3 scoops (~90g) chocolate protein powder of your choosing

6 tbsp cream cheese (I use Trader Joe's vegan cream cheese for this)

6 tbsp peanut butter Instructions Mix together cream cheese and peanut butter until smooth. Add in chocolate protein powder and combine until completely mixed, and a dough forms. I used my hands here, and kneaded it until everything was completely mixed in. I seriously use exam gloves to keep my hands clean! Press dough mixture into a silicon pullman loaf pan or a regular pullman loaf pan that has been lined with parchment/wax paper and chill for 10-15 minutes. You don't want it hard, just a little chilled. Turn out loaf onto a cutting board and slice into 6 equal pieces. Wrap in wax paper and store in the fridge!
