Hemp Protein Power Bars
Posted on September 16 2026
I’ve recently started back at the gym after a very long break and I'm trying to get a little more protein into my diet to help keep me energised throughout the day.
These yummy bars are packed with plant-based protein, fibre and plenty of good stuff, making them a great snack for anyone who likes to keep active or simply wants something filling to enjoy during the day.
They’re quite a dense bar, so a little goes a long way, and they’re perfect to have on hand before or after a workout, or when you need something to keep you going between meals.
Hemp Protein Power Bars
1 cup Hemp protein powder
1 cup Hemp hearts
1 cup Pitted dates
½ cup Peanut butter
¼ cup Cocoa powder
¼ cup Maple syrup
¼ cup Melted coconut oil
1 tsp Vanilla extract
1 pinch Salt
Optional Topping
2 Squares Dark Chocolate (approx)
Method
Add all the ingredients to a food processor, and pulse until the mixture is finely ground and well combined.
Press into 6 silicone bar moulds, or 12 mini moulds. (Alternatively, press into a small, lined baking tin.)
Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or until firm.
Optional: Top with melted dark chocolate if desired.
Remove from moulds or cut the slice into bars and serve.
These bars are perfect for a healthy snack on the go or for a post-workout boost of protein. They are vegan, gluten-free, and packed with the goodness of natural hemp protein, hemp hearts, and peanut butter. Enjoy!
