Notes
*Any protein powder should work, but the brand linked is what I recommend.
**Add 1 Tbsp water at a time because (depending on the brand of ingredients you use) the quantity of water needed may vary.
When making these protein bars, I lined my pan with stretch-tite plastic food wrap (also known as saran wrap). I simply cut a long piece of plastic wrap, folded it in half (to make it thicker) and then placed it in the pan. Next, I added the dough and evenly spread it out with a spatula. Then I folded the plastic wrap over the dough and used that as a barrier between my hands and the dough to press down the bars. After freezing, removal of the bars was easy and the plastic wrap peeled off perfectly.
