Easy Pumpkin Protein Bars

Directions

This recipe is adapted from a protein pancake recipe and just increased the amount for healthy bars and baked instead of the griddle.  These are super  for on the go/travel:

In a medium bowl combine all the following:
    •    3 egg whites, scrambled
    •    1.5 cups oats, uncooked (or 5 grain cereal, or Bob's Red Mill muesli)
    •    2 scoops vanilla Muscle Provider
    •    3 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
    •    1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
    •    2  teaspoons baking powder
    •    pinch sea salt
    •    1 cup pumpkin
    •    enough water to make like a batter
    •    (1/2 C chopped walnuts, optional)
    •    (1 T chopped fresh ginger, option, but oh so good!)

Mix all above ingredients together and pour into a greased 8x8 baking pan.  Bake at 375 for about 30 minutes (seems like the middle bar is aways soft, even when I over baked).

Great for snacks when traveling, skiing, backpacking, biking or after a hard workout!
