It works perfect in this recipe!

Also it is about 17g of protein but once again with different protein powder that can differ greatly. Note: I ran the numbers using eggwhites, protein powder with 30g a serving and raisins. No nuts.

Yogurt + protein powder could be used as a frosting or to make cookie sandwiches or something. The question is, how much protein can you squeeze into a tablespoon of yogurt frosting? Sounds like high-time to conduct some food experiments. val:

I used lite corn syrup (the clear stuff), and regular slow-cook oats (since I had lots on hand). The result is something like the taste and texture of a Quaker Oatmeal Square, minus the frosting. I will add these to my assortment of good eats. Thanks for posting this recipe. Steve:

I have a faster/healthier version of a homemade protein bar that doesn't require any baking at http://worldfitnessnetwork.com/2009/02/worlds-best-tasting-fastest-healthiest-homemade-protein-bars/ I think you have to be careful about baking protein power – I think it degrades the protein.

I'm struggling to find time just to post. You can visit a nutrition website, possibly try fitday.com and you should be able to plug in all those ingredients and get a total nutritional breakdown for the bars. If you do this, please post your results back here, otherwise I'll try to get to it eventually. Kelsey:

I have never tried it. Instead of the egg you could use Eggbeaters I suppose. I have never tried it.
