Ingredients
- 1 cup egg white protein powder sugar free vanilla flavored
- 4 tablespoons collagen peptides optional
- 1 1/2 cups almond flour
- 1/2 cup tahini
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/3 cup monk fruit powdered, or 1/2 teaspoon stevia glycerite, or more, to taste
- 1/4 cup water plus more as needed
- 2 tablespoons black sesame seeds toasted
- 2 tablespoons white sesame seeds toasted
Instructions
- Combine protein powder, collagen, almond flour, sweetener, and salt in a food processor. Pulse to combine. Add the tahini and run the processor. When completely combined, add water, a tablespoon at a time until the mixture begins to come together to form a ball. Knead in the sesame seeds.
- Press into an 8Ć8-inch pan lined with parchment or plastic wrap.
- Refrigerate until cool and set, about an hour, slice into 12 bars and wrap individually with parchment paper. Store in the refrigerator until eating as they can spoil. These can be taken for travel and will not melt although they will get quite soft and tacky when warm.
