Ingredients

for 6 pieces

Peanut mixture
4 tbsp vegan protein powder (e.g. Qualité & Prix)
2 tbsp ground cane sugar
100 g peanut butter
40 g salted, roasted peanuts
1 ½ tbsp finely-ground instant coffee
1 tbsp water, hot
To shape
50 g dark chocolate, finely chopped
2 pinch sea salt

How it's done

Peanut mixture

Place the protein powder in a bowl along with all the other ingredients up to and including the peanuts, knead by hand to form a compact mass. Mix the coffee powder and water until the coffee has dissolved. Transfer the peanut mixture to the prepared tin, press down firmly.

To shape

Place the chocolate in a thin-sided bowl and suspend over a gently simmering bain-marie, ensuring that the bowl does not touch the water. Melt the chocolate, stir until smooth, spread on top of the peanut mixture. Sprinkle with the fleur de sel, cover and leave to set in the fridge for at least 2 hrs.

Bars

Turn the mixture out onto a chopping board, cut into 6 bars using a bread knife.
