Protein Pumpkin Bars

October 2, 2014 by Monica Nelson 4,826 Comments

Protein Pumpkin Bars Protein Pumpkin Bars Protein Pumpkin Bars

I just love pumpkin, pumpkin, pumpkin.  It is true.  Every time I am at the store this time of year, I stock up on the canned pumpkin. I am talking at least 5 cans a visit.  I also found a brand that is Organic and BPA Free…holla!

What is not to love about this recipe? A snack and treat that is great for pre -or post- workouts that is protein packed, good for you, and… SO Delicious. Low in sugar too.

Protein Pumpkin Bars

I take advantage of this time of year and any recipe I can that involves Pumpkin.  When it comes to Pumpkin Bars, I have many recipes I like but I wanted something easier.  A bar with no hassles and I wanted them to still stay HEALTHY. So here we are with this recipe.

Don't forget the whipped cream! If you are not sick of pumpkin yet, then you will love these. Can make as a loaf and cut into bars or use a muffin tin and have healthy muffins for on the go!

Like this recipe? Try my Protein Cake Bars and all my Lightened-Up Treats. Also, check out A TON of all my Pumpkin recipes – you will for sure find something you like, I promise.

Many have asked the Nutritional Info. Here it is WITHOUT THE WHIPPED CREAM OR NUTS:

SERVING SIZE: 1 Serving (42.5 g) or (1 small square) Calories 58, Fat 2.8 g, Carbs 8.7 g Sodium 53 mg Protein 5.3 g Fiber 1.1 g Sugar 4.9 g.

    Hey! Do you know if they make any plugins to protect against hackers? I’m kinda paranoid about losing everything I’ve worked hard on. Any suggestions?

    Hi there! Quick question that’s completely
    off topic. Do you know how to make your site mobile friendly?
    My website looks weird when browsing from my iphone4.

    I’m trying to find a template or plugin that might be able to fix this problem.
    If you have any recommendations, please share.
    Appreciate it!

    This design is steller! You definitely know how to keep a
    reader amused. Between your wit and your videos, I was almost moved to start my own blog (well, almost…HaHa!) Excellent job.
    I really loved what you had to say, and more than that, how you presented it.
    Too cool!

    Other highlights from Jones’ odd trailer include Tony Stark as the Joker,
    the recurring glimpses of John Travolta’s Vincent from Pulp Fiction, the classic gaming references,
    Iron Man’s built-in Ant Man repellent, and a really sudden appearance from Inside Out ‘s Rage.

    This fact also may well be the overriding factor of it current success and no
    doubt will continue to be. But also, it really is a cool
    Instrument to learn (I’m slowly progressing), and
    also a major fact is, it it rather easy to learn and a very reasonably priced Instrument to buy, hence why tons and tons of people are becoming crazy mad Ukulele players as we speak.
    If a modern movie is entirely free, most often the transaction can get
    you into legal problems.
