Perfect for Any Lifestyle

Whether you're meal prepping for the week, need a quick post-workout snack, or want to satisfy cookie dough cravings without the guilt, these bars have you covered. Store them in the fridge or freezer - they thaw super fast when you're ready to enjoy!

Ingredients

  • 1 cup Bethany's Pantry Vanilla Digestive Support Protein

  • 1 cup thick Greek yogurt or skyr (full-fat preferred for best texture)

  • ¼ cup filtered water (add gradually as needed)

  • Mini chocolate chips to taste (for topping)

Directions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine Bethany's Pantry Vanilla DSP and thick Greek yogurt. Mix thoroughly until the mixture becomes very crumbly and well combined.

  2. Add ¼ cup of water and continue mixing. The mixture should start coming together into a dough-like consistency. If it's still too dry, add 1 tablespoon more water and continue mixing. Be careful not to add too much water or the mixture will become loose.

  3. If the mixture becomes too wet, simply add more DSP until you achieve the right consistency - it should hold together when pressed but not be sticky.

  4. Using clean hands, knead the mixture until it forms one large, cohesive ball of "dough."

  5. Place a sheet of parchment paper on a clean surface. Transfer the dough ball to the parchment and shape it into a large rectangle about ½ inch thick.

  6. If using chocolate chips, sprinkle them evenly over the top of the rectangle and gently press them into the surface.

  7. Using a sharp knife or pizza cutter, cut the rectangle into 4 equal XL bars (or your desired size and shape).

  8. Place each bar in the refrigerator with parchment paper between each one, or store in a ziplock-type bag. Chill for at least 2 hours to firm up.

  9. For longer storage, freeze the bars - they thaw quite fast when you're ready to enjoy them!
