A Pinterest inspired High-protein Banoffee Pie Breakfast! Ad How good is Pinterest? It’s my go-to whenever I need inspiration for a recipe, how to style it, or how to decorate something, just like these High-protein Banoffee Breakfast Bars. I use the search feature and personalised home to find creations from cooks and food stylists all over the world. Protein breakdown Protein powder - 25g Oats - 13.2g Soy milk - 4g Peanut butter - 16g Tofu - 48g = 106.2 /8 = 13.3g Ingredients (makes 8 bars) ‘Shortbread’ base: 120g oat flour 4 level tbsp unflavoured protein powder 60g desiccated coconut Small pinch of sea salt 1/2 tsp cinnamon 120ml soy milk 1 tsp vanilla 1-2 tbsp water ‘Caramel’ middle: 15 medjool dates, pits removed, soaked in boiling water for 10 mins if hard 3 heaped tbsp peanut butter 50-60ml water (add a tbsp at a time) Whipped tofu ‘cream’: 400g firm tofu 2 tbsp lemon juice Zest of one lemon 2 tbsp maple syrup or agave 1 tbsp olive oil Pinch sea salt 2-4 tbsp water (add a tbsp at a time) Other: 3 bananas, sliced fairly thinly at an angle 50g dark chocolate, grated or shaved Method If your dates are not squishy, soak them in boiling water for at least 10 mins. Preheat your oven to 160c. In a medium mixing bowl, add all the dry ingredients, mix well, then add the soy milk and vanilla. Give it a good stir to bring it all together, Add the water a tbsp at a time, kneading with your hands until you get a ball. In a lined 9x9 baking pan, push the mixture down in an even layer with your hands and the back of a spoon. Make sure it’s super even and packed down. The more even it is at the sides, the cleaner the layers will look. Prod the layer with a fork a few times, then bake for 10 mins. Drain the soaked dates and add them to a blender with the 3 tbsp peanut butter. Blend until smooth and there are no large pieces of dates, smaller ones are ok! Add a little splash of water to the blender if necessary to help it blend. Layer the date peanut caramel evenly over the shortbread base, using the back of a spoon to help it spread evenly. Pop this in the fridge whilst you whizz up all the ingredients for the whipped tofu cream, season to taste, add a little more lemon or liquid sweetener if you want to. It should be super creamy, so blend it for a while . Slice the banana and layer this over the top of the date caramel. Dollop the tofu cream over the top and lightly style it with the back of a spoon. Grate the chocolate over the top, slice into 8 bars and dig in 😊 #banoffee #highproteinrecipes #vegan #healthytreats - @sophsplantkitchen
