Ingredients
For the bars:
- 1 scoop (43 grams) MUD/WTR Nourish Vanilla Protein Blend
- 1 1/2 cups quick oats
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- pinch of kosher salt
- 1/4 cup tahini

Instructions
Make the bars:
- Line an 8" x 4" loaf pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on all sides.
- In a medium bowl combine the protein powder, oats, cinnamon and salt. In another bowl whisk together the tahini, maple syrup, milk and vanilla.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and mix to combine. Transfer to your prepared loaf pan and press in evenly. Freeze for 30 minutes.
Make the topping:
- Pour the powdered sugar, 1/2 tablespoon of milk and the vanilla into a small bowl. Whisk, adding more milk a bit at a time if needed, till a thick yet pourable consistency is achieved.
- Using the parchment sling to assist, transfer the bars to a cutting board and slice into 8 pieces. Drizzle with the glaze. Chill for 10 minutes to set slightly, then sprinkle with the crushed strawberries.
- Store in the fridge up to 1 week or in the freezer for up to 2 months.
