Can we all agree on two things? 1). How hard it is to turn on your oven when it’s hot as lava outside and 2). Blueberry muffins!!!!
Starting with statement number 1, since it’s August, aka hot and humid on the east coast, the A.C is the first thing I want to turn on and the oven is the last thing I want to turn on. Am I right? With that in mind, I’m sharing a no-bake recipe with y’all today 🙂
Secondly, number 2. My love for blueberry muffins has never faded away. In fact, it’s become stronger than ever., which brings me to these BLUEBERRY MUFFIN PROTEIN BARS.
Does you guys remember these No-Bake S’mores Protein Bars I made awhile back? They were my first no-bake protein bar recipe I ever made with Vital Proteins. They came out so good that I decided to use the same base, but obviously with a different flavor.
For those of you who have never tried collagen, you need to. Taking collagen can help support bone and joint health, healthy hair, skin, and nails, and digestion. Both Rachel and I started using collagen religiously a few months ago, and have seen many benefits! For this recipe, I used Vital Protein’s Vanilla Collagen Peptides to add extra sweetness.
Have you ever tried the blueberry muffin Quest bars? I’d say that these homemade bars are better, but I maybe a little biased. For one thing, they don’t have the artificial aftertaste like Quest bars because they’re made with whole ingredients.
Here is what ya need:
Vital Protein vanilla collagen peptides
almond flour
almond butter
maple syrup
freeze-dried blueberries
walnuts
white chocolate chips
almond milk

Question of the day:
Ooh I love protein bars with that sort of texture. It looks really soft! And I love that you keep going on the blueberry muffin trend. That collagen also sounds like it’s a really yummy flavor. I’ve never tried Vital Proteins, but I have tried Further Food Collagen. They don’t have different flavors; which would make Vital Proteins interesting to try!
Oh these look so so lush! I really need to get some collagen peptides. I’ve been thinking about getting some from iherb but they’re so expensive and I don’t want it to be awful and I regret it haha
These bars are on the softer side which we love too! I don’t think we’ll ever get over the blueberry muffin trend, it’s here to stay! Vital proteins is the bomb! Thanks so much Emily 🙂
You need to try Vital Proteins, it’s life-changing! Thanks Kristy:)
Mmm, these look great! Could I sub the collagen protein for any vegan protein powder to make these vegan-friendly?
Hi Cassie,
You sure could! Let me know how you like em!
These look AWESOME ladies!!! I love homemade protein bars and no bake are totally perfect for summertime! Especially given that it’s blueberry season! YUMMMM.
So many things I agree on wholeheartedly. We may as well just add a C to that list: how perfectly scrumdiliumptious these bars are!! Oh and maybe D) how awesome Vital Proteins is. Love that stuff, I blend it into something on the daily. Gotta try no-baking with it next though because these sound TOO good!
So many reasons to make these bars! Thanks so much Natalie, we completely agree with ya 🙂
Yum! I’ve been in need of more portable snacks to take to work, so these are perfect. And I looooove sweetening things with maple syrup.
These are perfect for ya!
