Homemade Collagen Protein Bars

Protein bars recipe and content provided by Sheridan Austin

Bulletproof Collagen Bars are the easiest way to get pastured protein on the go without sapping your macros. But if you can’t tolerate nuts, these homemade collagen protein bars are the next best thing. Just like regular collagen bars, this recipe is packed with skin-smoothing, gut-healing pastured collagen and energizing Brain Octane Oil.

The best thing about these nut-free protein bars is that they’re easy to customize. Once you make your coconut butter base, it’s ready to pair with just about any mix-in under the sun. You can try the suggestions in the recipe below, or get wild and include dark chocolate chunks, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, sea salt, or chunks of cacao butter.

Serve your homemade collagen protein bars with Bulletproof Coffee, pack them in your lunch, or enjoy as a sweet afternoon snack.

This nut-free homemade protein bars recipe is packed with skin-smoothing, gut-healing benefits of pastured collagen protein.
