Ingredients

  • 1 1/4 cups natural peanut butter creamy variety
  • 1/4 cup honey plus 4 teaspoons
  • 3/4 cup non-fat dry milk powder
  • 1/2 cup unflavored powdered egg whites
  • 3 tablespoons coconut oil melted

Instructions

  • Line the bottom and sides of a loaf pan with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, using an electric hand mixer, beat together the peanut butter and honey until they thicken up.
  • Add in all the remaining ingredients and beat until they begin to mix. Then, use your hands until well mixed. The dough will be thick, a little bit sticky, and soft.
  • Press evenly into the prepared pan and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until firm.
  • Slice into bars and DEVOUR!

Notes

To make dairy free: Use only 1/4 Cup plus 2 teaspoons honey and sub the dry milk powder for SIFTED (very important) powdered coconut milk.
I have also tried this by omitting all the milk powder and using all egg protein, if you want to make it suitable for a paleo diet, and it works great. It is slightly less sweet, but still very tasty!
I recommend a no-stir variety of peanut butter. Swap in almond butter for paleo.
Use refined coconut oil if you don’t want a coconut taste.
Depending on the temperature of your fridge, your bars may firm up more or less – you can always place them in the freezer if your fridge isn’t cold enough.
