Following two persons advice, I’ve got some oat milk to put in my coffee. They both said they prefer it to milk.
I thought it was too watery. I wonder if the grain juice I got wasn’t very good. It’s “Planet Oat” oat milk original unsweetened. It barely adds any color, texture or taste to the coffee.
So, coffee drinkers: do you like your bean tea with oat juice? If so, is it supposed to be that watered down? If not, what brand of grain juice do you prefer?
I don’t use exact ratios, but the foundation is pure unflavored pea protein powder, some nut/seed butter as a binder, dates for sweetness, and then one or two add-ins to taste. I add whatever sounds yummy and is on hand. Raisins, craisins, pepitas, sunflower seeds, chocolate chips, maple sugar, crushed pretzel bits. I make matcha bars sometimes, but my partner swears they taste like compost, so those are a separate batch just for me. Don’t be afraid to get creative!
You just mix it all together in a KitchenAid or by hand, press it into a pan, chill it in the fridge, and then slice it into bars and store in bags in the fridge. They freeze well if you have more than you can eat quickly.
That sounds really similar to some bars that I make.
I take cashews and dates, blend them in a food processor to make a paste, and then add protein powder for flavor (and protein). I press them in a pan, cool them, and then cut them. I sometimes put them in the dehydrator if I want them to get a bit less chewy, but I usually skip that step.
They dont last long.
Im going to try your bar recipe. I always have dried fruit and nuts sitting around, and I have some unflavored pea protein.
