Love the convenience of protein bars<\/a> but not the long list of questionable ingredients? Make your own on-the-go snacks for when you know you\u2019ll need a portable and healthy pick-me-up later in the week. Thanks to DailyBurn’s\u00a0Fuel-6 protein powder<\/a>, these bars deliver 12 grams of protein, but they\u2019re lower in sugar<\/a> than the average energy bar<\/a>. They\u2019re gluten-free, dairy-free, vegan, and require\u00a0just six ingredients. Try using a different nut butter<\/a> such as peanut butter for more of a \u201cpeanut butter cup\u201d variation, or cashew butter and vanilla protein powder for more of a cookie dough<\/a> flavor.<\/p>\n
