Gingerbread Protein Granola bars
Gingerbread Chocolate Protein Granola Bars
I’m taking the childhood favorite recess snack & combining it with the classic flavor of the holidays: gingerbread
A lot of people tend to have a hard time getting in enough protein so these bars are a great way to do so! The RAW Whey isolate is not just there for nutrition but it’s going to help thicken as well as flavor the bars
I chose Cookies n Cream because they go great with Gingerbread. Gingerbread is a cookie so it just makes sense, plus the vanilla base as well as the cookie chunks in the protein really help give that gingerbread cookie vibe
