Default Hint on making bars

I am looking at making some home made protien bars. I want to use canned pumpkin, and my cookies and cream whey. I was thinking about trying John's protien bars, but using this stuff for subs.

Sounds pretty good to me. Let us know how it turns out.

I love any recipe with pumpkin in it, so be sure to share if it comes out good.

I agree. Pumpkin Rules. I have a pumpkin shake and pumpkin protein pancake recipes that are awesome.

I do pumpkin shakes all the time.

Canned pumpkin and protein powder makes a tasty pudding, too.

yep.

Some artificial sweetener and maybe some cinnamon or a shake of "pumpkin pie spice," too.

Chocolate and vanilla are both good.

Yes! Pumpkin! I had some pumpkin leftover in the fridge and made individual pumpkin cheesecakes tonight. I rarely measure but the recipe had;

-Canned pumpkin (1 cup or so)
-2 eggs
-Fat free cream cheese (8oz)
-Nutmeg
-Cinnamon
-Vanilla extract

Mixed it all together, put it in baking cups in a muffin pan and baked for about 25 minutes at 400C. Damn they're tasty.

Man I tried to make the the trail bars on one of the podcasts that I watched. I went out and bought all the ingredients and mixed everything up and the bars turned our horrible. They were all runny and oily and I couldn't figure out what was wrong. About a week later it hit me that I used fresh berries instead of dried berries....but I haven't attempted to remake them yet.

Sorry to hear they didn't work for you - those fresh berries must have made a real mess

Definitely give them a try with dried cranberries though - good stuff!

Not too portable, but they probably tasted good. Maybe heated up. Under a couple of scoops of ice cream...

Sorry, been really busy. I will go through my GN book tonight and see about making them. I should have an hour or so.

At first I thought it was oil from the almonds and cashews, but then I figured it out. I knew it was me having a brain-fart as opposed to the recipe, because so many people have said how good they are.

Hmmm...never thought about that. I did tear up a bit though watching my wife dump everything in the trash.

Ok, I made them and they turned out pretty good.

1/4c oats
1/4c ground flax
1/4c buckwheat
1/4c brown sugar twin
2 scoops cookies n cream whey
1/2 789ml can unsweetend pumpkin
1 egg

mixed it all up and put it in a greased 9x9 pan for 30 minutes @ 350. You could also put them in tin foil to make individuals. I cut it up into 10 pieces. Next time I might add a scoop or two more whey and I might use the whole can and a 13x9 glass pan.
