Guava Protein Bar with Cream Cheese Swirl
Bright and tangy with a tropical twist, the fruity taste in these is balanced by a swirl of cream cheese.
Servings: 12
Calories: 239kcal
Ingredients
- 1 cup egg white protein powder sugar free vanilla flavored
- 4 tablespoons collagen peptides optional
- 1 1/2 cups almond flour
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon guava extract
- 4 packets true lemon
- 1/3 cup monk fruit powdered, or 1/2 teaspoon stevia glycerite, or more, to taste
- natural food coloring optional
- water as needed
- 4 ounces cream cheese softened, or Kite Hill cream cheese for dairy-free
Instructions
- Combine protein powder, collagen, almond flour, sweetener, and salt in a food processor.
- With the food processor running, stream in the water, color, and guava flavor. Process until the batter comes together in a large ball. Add water a tablespoon at a time and process well to ensure it is incorporated before adding more if it seems too dry.
- Place the batter onto a piece of plastic wrap and flatten into a large rectangle. Spread the cream cheese over top, leaving a bit of a border all around. Roll the rectangle up and then 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.
