Protein bars are awesome, right? I love to have them as a quick snack, especially as I'm strength training on a regular basis. Unfortunately, the are also pretty expensive and often have ingredients that aren't absolutely necessary. These homemade vanilla cookie dough flavoured protein bars have only six ingredients, are easy and quick to make and taste amazing. Give them a try and let me know what you think!

Protein packed chickpea cookie dough
Cookie dough is the ultimate comfort food. And it's usually high in refined sugar and refined flour.

Just because it's fun! The chickpeas in this recipe give you a good amount of plant based protein, and all the sweetness comes from just five fresh dates.
