AMAZING Protein cake/bar recipe!
I like anything Peanut Butter! I don't have many of the ingredients that you listed so I'll be adding them to my grocery list. I didn't like the PB2 and I regret getting rid of it. Do you know of any stores that sell it?

Roz,
The only store that sells a version of PB2 that I know of is Wegman's. But it's pricey. I ordered a 1lb bag from Netrition for the same price of Wegman's 3.5 oz jar.
I found that these bars weren't overpoweringly peanut buttery tasting, that's probably because of the pumpkin pie spice. Which was okay, but I won't add it next time. I LOVE peanut butter or anything that tastes like it! :0)
FYI, Watkins extracts are amazing and they have a ton of flavours including peanut butter. I use them daily to spice up my protein ice cream.

I'll have to check out the Watkins. I've never heard of Wegman's. I'm going to try a few of our nutrition stores. I might just try putting peanut butter in them. I usually eat a TBS. every day anyhow. I was making the flourless PB cookies but they are so dry that I don't really enjoy them.

Meg, I actually added a half scoop more protein powder and next time I'll add a full scoop more to up the protein even higher. If you increase the protein powder just add a bit more almond milk, maybe a tablespoon or two.
It is quite cakey, it's not exactly moist like a brownie but it's not dry either. I think I baked mine too long though and will shorten the baking time for my next batch.

These look great. I use plain old peanut flour I place of PB2 in recipes because it's much cheaper. I get it at Whole Foods.
I am afraid that these might call to me and I would over indulge.
I wonder if they could be made in a muffin top pan?

When I make anything tempting I wrap them individually and put them in the freezer. If I can't just grab them I have a lot more control.
