Cookie dough ” M&M” protein bars (vegan & healthy)

12g per serving |Flourless, soyfree and the perfect treat after or before your workout!

I always need something sweet after lunch or dinner and whats better than a protein packed treat? I gave a few to my sister and her fiancé and they loved them too!

You can also eat the raw dough – it tastes heavenly!

The only ingredients that contained sugar( in my option) were the chocolate and the vegan M&M’s but you can replace these with sugar-free products if you want. I ‘ll also uploaded a video on how to make these on my YouTube channel this afternoon: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCEtjJmajCmLHf-GZRL7RsTQ

Enough talk, here’s the recipe!
