Eton Mess Protein Bars

Another delicious flavour for you - Eton Mess.

Disclaimer - this one is for serious sweet tooth's only!

I used tiny little mini meringues that I found in the baking section of Waitrose but if you're unable to get hold of these you can use an ordinary meringue nest. Crush it in a sandwich bag to save making a mess!

Servings: Makes 5 bars (can be cut into smaller bites if preferred)

Macros per bar: 233 calories / 16g protein / 38g carbs / 1.8g fat / 2.5g fibre

Ingredients:

200g LIGHT condensed milk

60g vanilla protein powder

80g oats (regular or gluten free)

1 meringue nest

10g freeze dried raspberries or strawberries (available in the baking section of most supermarkets)

Dash of almond milk

Icing pen to decorate (optional)

Instructions:

1. In a blender or food processor grind oats & protein powder into a flour.

2. Add condensed milk meringue, half of the raspberries & almond milk & mix until stuck together. Add the milk a TINY bit at a time (the mix should be thick like cookie dough).

3. Place mix in a square tin of choice, lined with baking paper or cling film (for easy removal). I use a disposable foil brownie tray, available in most supermarkets when I make these to save washing up!

4. Flatten mix so top is smooth, sprinkle the remaining raspberries on top & press them in using the back of a spoon. Decorate as desired with icing pen.

5. Eat within 3 days :-)
