Protein Packed Recipes with Kinetica

With the sunnier weather and lighter evenings and mornings, I have been out and about running more in an effort to get fitter and improve my running time. A great way to refuel after exercise is with something high in protein. I have been sent some Kinetica protein powders to put together some new protein packed and delicious recipes.

Take a look at what I have come up with…

 Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup gluten free oats (to make oat flour)
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup Kinetica Chocolate Protein Powder
  • 1/2 cup homemade, unsweetened applesauce
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tbsp honey or agave nectar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2/3 cup homemade Almond Milk
  • 2 tbsp coconut oil

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 175°c and line a baking tray with greaseproof paper.
  2. Place the oats in blender and blend for a minute or so until they resemble the consistency of flour. Put the oat flour to medium bowl then whisk in protein powder and cocoa powder.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together applesauce, egg, honey, vanilla and almond milk until smooth and well combined. Add to dry ingredients and mix together until just combined.
  4. Heat coconut oil over very low heat; stir continuously until coconut oil has melted. Stir into brownie batter.
  5. Pour mixture into prepared baking tray. Sprinkle optional toppings like sliced almonds or chocolate chips on top.
  6. Bake for around 20 minutes, then take out and leave to cool. Once cool, cut into bars. Keep them covered in the refrigerator and enjoy cold.
