I blended mine with a little water and really well so that it wasn’t chucky pieces od sesame seeds. I might do less cocoa powder next time. I also used swerve as the original was jot available at our store. Still it was very good and thankful for the alternative to a nut free recipe

You can use my sweetener guide and conversion chart as the first thing listed is regular sugar to compare the different options like granulated or confectioners or liquid sweeteners.https://www.sugarfreemom.com/recipes/natural-sugar-free-low-carb-sweeteners-guide-conversion-chart/

Hi, Brenda. I can’t rate recipe yet, as haven’t made it.
Have a question: If I want to substitute honey or maple syrup for the Monk Fruit sweetener, how much would I use for this recipe?
Also, where you’ve listed ‘ounces’ – I’d love to know what the ounces convert to, such as cups or tablespoons, teaspoons, etc.
Thanks so much & God bless.

Made these today – so good!
I only had 90 of sunflower seeds so I added 30g of unsweetened coconut 🤩
Also I used crunchy peanut butter.
I thought the « batter » was too dry but I pressed into the pan with a potato masher and refrigerated it! Success without the extra chocolate dip!

These are great for school snacks, thank you Brenda! I was wondering if I could replace the cocoa powder for an organic raspberry or strawberry one to change flavour?

In reply to Tania. I just look for minimal ingredients, no sugar and I purchase whey protein as I think that is the best.

Hi Brenda!
What types of protein are most suitable for keto and baking.
What should I look for? I’m in Canada, so, brand choices are different.
Thank you for all your wonderful recipes!!

In reply to Brenda. Thanks for getting back to me, Brenda! I just bought a lot of the sucralose protein and would hate it to go to waste, as it wasn't cheap. Could I cut down on the Swerve without altering the recipe too much, before I get the right stuff? Thanks, Linda

In reply to Linda K.. Yes I would not recommend the sucralose as these bars would be very sweet. The protein powder I linked to and use in the ingredients is from Jay Robb which has minimal ingredients and fillers.

I made these the other day and just did some research on chocolate protein powders. I didn’t realise that there are so many choices. I purchased mine at the Bulk Barn in Canada. The ingredients are listed as: Whey protein isolate (milk, contains soy lecithin) cocoa, skim milk powder, salt, silicon dioxide, sucralose. I’m not sure if this would be a good protein powder to use and if there are better ones. Maybe this would be too much sweetener with the sucralose in the whey protein and the Swerve in the recipe.
Brenda, hope you can help me out.
