Would sugar free syrup work in place of the honey?

In reply to Snazzy. I haven't tested it with anything other than whey, but it should work. I'd just try with half the amount at first and go from there. Since its no-bake you can play around with it to get a texture and taste you like. I'd love it you reported back if you give it a try.

Would this work with another type of protein powder? I don’t do whey…

In reply to Sabrina. I get it online as I haven't seen in stores yet either. Nature's Hollow Sugar Free Honey. You can get it at lowcarbgrocery.com or lowcarbcanada.ca

In reply to Marilyn Z. Right?! I love new ideas too! You can totally use regular craisins for these...they may just add a gram of sugar or 2 to each bar. I just got the reduced sugar ones at my regular grocery store (I'm in Canada). I do know they are in the US, but not sure where. They only come in small bags though.

These look so tempting. For the ones I currently make, I use coconut flour plus grated carrots and throw in whatever dried fruits and nuts I have on hand but I also use a leavening agent. I must try these since I would rather mine were not so cakelike.

Where do you find the reduced sugar craisins? I just bought a giant bag of the regular at Sams but I did not know the other existed.

That’s what I love about these posts…we get so many great ideas from one another.

Thank you.

In reply to Kelly. Do you have rolled oats? Any kind. Quick oats, large flake, instant oats. Just put them in a blender or food processor. ..and there you have oat flour :)

These sound amazing! I was eyeing the cranberry bliss bars at Starbucks today but couldn’t do it.
