Lemon Protein Bars Recipe
By Dr. Josh Axe
April 26, 2022
You've had lemon bars, right? Sickly sweet and not very good for you, how pivoting to our Lemon Protein Bars recipe?
With our Bone Broth Protein Vanilla, you're getting the gut, skin and joint support from collagen type II (which, in turn, naturally features glucosamine, chondroitin and hyaluronic acid) plus 19 amino acids! Each bar offers a perfect macronutrient profile for the Paleo eater, with 15 grams of healthy carbs, 9 grams of protein and 3 grams of fat.
These lemon bars are a great snack to have with your afternoon tea or coffee, or even as a dessert. Plus they're easy to make!
First, preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 8 x 8 pan with coconut oil.
In a mixing bowl, add the oat flour, protein powder, salt and baking soda and mix well together.
In a separate bowl, combine lemon juice, egg whites, stevia and applesauce.
Combine both bowls ingredients into one bowl. Spread into greased pan and bake for 25 minutes.

With loads of serums, moisturizers and beauty routines (such as the new trend called skin cycling) available, it’s difficult to know what really hydrates skin versus what’s a waste of your money and time.
