Ingredients

  • 1 cup old-fashioned oatmeal
  • 1 scoop vanilla protein powder
  • 1 cup pumpkin (make sure it is only pure pumpkin and not pie filling)
  • 1 1/2 T psyllium husk powder
  • 1 T pumpkin pie spice
  • water/liquid of choice*

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and grease an 8x8 dish

  2. Mix all of your dry ingredients together in a bowl and then mix in the pumpkin. 

  3. Add liquid until mixture is fully saturated*

  4. Pour into your greased dish and cook for 25 minutes, or until your toothpick is clean

  5. Let cool for 5-10 minutes before cutting and placing on a wire to complete cooling

  6. Store bars in an air-tight container in the fridge

Recipe Notes

  1. You may use whatever liquid you prefer. I use water. The amount will depend on your protein powder and your use of psyllium husk powder. I used ~3/4- 1 cup water. I recommend adding a bit of your liquid at a time, mixing and seeing how well it absorbs. The mixture should be thick, but you should be able to pour it into your dish when you are finished. 
  2. I cut my bars into 12 servings, but you can cut it into as many pieces as you would prefer. If you are using it for breakfast, cut fewer pieces, or eat a few bars at a time.
