Protein snacks: our best ideas

In the world of fitness, protein cookies and bars are like triathlons: versatile, well-rounded, and fun to do. Essential to any protein snack menu, they’re easy to make, come in many shapes and flavours, and are perfect as an on-the-go treat.

If you’re in the mood for something chewy and crunchy, cookies are the way to go and can be made with various tastes like dark chocolate chips, almond flour or oatmeal. Bars, on the other hand, are typically more compact and dense, often featuring dried fruits, seeds, and nuts.  

Not sure where to start? Here’s a collection of our most popular protein bar recipes and favourite protein cookie ideas. 

Like a quick session in the pool, protein smoothies and ice creams are cool and refreshing, easy to fit into busy schedules, and perfect for anytime snacking. They offer a delicious way to pack extra protein into your day, while also satisfying your sweet tooth.  

Most of the recipes in our collection feature protein-rich cottage cheese or quark as base, adding a creamy texture and rich, satisfying taste. Including star ingredients from berries and pineapple to chocolate milk and tropical mango, they’re perfect as a quick treat that is ready to enjoy in a flash. 

Similar to a full body workout, protein porridges, bakes, and pancakes always hit all the right spots.  

Overnight oats are great for preparing ahead and waking up to a ready-to-eat treat. With oats as a hearty base, they can be enjoyed warm or cold, thick or creamy, chewy or soft. 

If you’re in the mood for a warm and cozy protein snack instead, fresh-from-the-oven muffins or fluffy pancakes are all-time favourites. With mix-ins like chocolate or blueberries, or topped with creamy cottage cheese, they’re as fun to make as they are to eat!
