Hi Kristine,

Would I be able to use peanut flour in place of the peanut protein?

Thanks!

In reply to S. I think it would definitely be better with vanilla!

Hi Kristine,
Do you think the protein bars would taste better using vanilla or chocolate whey protein? I don’t have peanut protein on hand and I’m trying to decide between the two. Thank you!

In reply to Valeria Monnier. Hi Valeria, you are actually reading the nutrition incorrectly. They have 16.5 g protein and less that 6 g sugar.

Hmmmmmm excuse me, this bar is far from being “healthy”. It’s loaded with sugar and it has only 5g of protein per bar? I make bars at home, they have 22g of protein, 230 calories and less than 3 grams of sugar (and I use chocolate 70% cacao). They are 2 1/2 ounces each.

In reply to Heather @ Where's the Beach. PB2 would work, you'd just have to use so much of it. I'd opt for whey protein instead, or even a vegan protein, but I'd use half the amount.

Would something like PB2 or other powdered protein work in lieu of the peanut protein?
