PB&J Protein Blondies

by

I came home from work tonight craving a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. So, I did what any normal person would do. I decided to make some PB&J protein blondie bars. They definitely satisfied my itch for this classic and delicious flavor.

When I bite into these, I literally feel like I am eating a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. Except these babies are also packed with protein. And not to mention the amazing blondie texture. This is like taking a brownie and mixing it with peanut butter and jelly. What is not to love about that?

Each one of these blondies has as much or more protein than a typical protein bar. Yes, thats right. There are 14 grams of protein in each. I don’t know about you, but I would much rather eat a peanut butter and jelly flavored blondie than a bland protein bar any day. All that protein is thanks to the 2 scoops of Beast Sports vanilla protein I used.
