Gluten Free Cake Batter Protein Bar

I love making protein bars, it's kind of an obsession of mine (shhh!! don't tell anyone). So, I found a similar recipe online but converted it into a gluten free protein packed version. It is super simple to make and I love having protein bars on hand in the freezer. They are easy to prepare ahead of time, slice up and wrap in wax paper. They are great for the kids to grab in a hurry since we are always on the go!!
















2    cups brown rice krispies
1/3 cup quinoa flour
2/3 cup vanilla protein powder
2    tsp vanilla extract
1/2 tsp sea salt
3/8  cup cashew butter (softened)
1/2  cup agave
2    Tbs. confetti sprinkles (optional)

Combine all dry ingredients and stir well. Combine wet ingredients in a large bowl. Pour dry ingredients into wet. Mix well. Pour in two 5" X 7" glass containers. Tear off some wax paper and place on top of bars and press down as hard as you can. Put in freezer for a couple of hours before cutting into bars. Wrap the bars up individually in wax paper and place in a Zip type plastic bag. Store in freezer.
