Per Serving

- Oxalate **~10 mg**
- Sodium **235 mg**
- Added Sugar **0.5 g**
- Calcium **320 mg**
- Protein **29 g**

### Ingredients

### The Bar

- 1/3 cup pea crisps 
- 1 teaspoon PBfit PURE 
- 2 teaspoons vanilla whey isolate
- 2 teaspoons pumpkin purée
- 1/4 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
- 1/8 teaspoon vanilla paste
- A few drops of water only if needed

 

### The Fluffy Vanilla-Peanut Yogurt Frosting

- 2 tablespoons nonfat plain Greek yogurt
- 1/2 tablespoon PBfit PURE
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla whey isolate
- Tiny drop of vanilla paste, optional
- Pinch of pumpkin pie spice for the top

### Instructions

### The Bar

1. Mix the PBfit, vanilla whey isolate, pumpkin purée, pumpkin pie spice, and vanilla paste into a thick paste.
2. Add only a few drops of water if the mixture is too dry.
3. Gently fold in the pea crisps.
4. Press firmly into a square.
5. Refrigerate until firm about 15 minutes (or if you want you COULD skip this part)

 

### The Fluffy Vanilla-Peanut Yogurt Frosting

1. Mix the Greek yogurt, PBfit, whey isolate, and vanilla paste until smooth and fluffy. Spread over the chilled square right before eating so the pea crisps stay crunchy. Finish with a pinch of pumpkin pie spice.
2. No added sweetener needed because the vanilla whey already provides sweetness.

### Jill’s Notes

I wanted to create a high-protein bar that vegetarians could use without relying on ingredients that are especially high in oxalate. I found this [pea crisp product](https://amzn.to/3T2PFYB), which gives the bar a big protein boost and some crunch.

**More From Jill**

I also use this [peanut butter powder](https://amzn.to/3TlLpng) because it has no added sodium, and this [whey isolate protein powder](https://amzn.to/3STkJdr) because it works well for my stomach and I like the taste.

You can use vanilla extract, but I find vanilla paste brings a much richer flavor. I use [this one](https://amzn.to/3V5UO2M).

To make the bar vegan, swap the whey isolate for a vegan protein powder and use a non-dairy yogurt for the frosting.

You don’t have to chill it, but I do because I like everything chilled. So skip that if you like.

This is a lower-calorie, high-protein option that can still fit nicely into a lower-oxalate diet. Just watch the sodium. The pea crisps and protein powder contribute most of it, but the total is still very manageable. I simply account for it in the rest of my day.

I do not eat these every day, but I like having them as an option when I am a little short on protein, especially after a workout or with my morning coffee.

You can also eat the pea crisps on their own to add protein and crunch to yogurt, cereal, salads, and smoothie bowls. I notice a bit of an aftertaste, so I don’t love eating them straight from the bag. In a recipe like this, though, the other flavors help cover it nicely.

And yes, I am already experimenting with a PB&J Power Square next. So stay tuned!!!
