These homemade high-protein granola bars are great for snacking or bringing on a hike or long bike ride. The sugars from the jam will give you quick energy, while the fats and fiber from the oats and peanut butter keep your blood sugar from spiking.
Recipe: (Makes 9 bars)
¼ cup + 1 tbsp natural peanut butter ¼ cup slivered almonds or chopped peanuts ¼ cup strawberry jam, plus 1 tbsp for topping 1 tbsp coconut oil 1 scoop French Vanilla INVIGOR8 Superfood Shake ¼ tsp salt (if peanut butter is unsalted) 1 cup rolled oats
Preheat the oven to 350º F. Line a 9x5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper.
In a medium pot over low heat, add the peanut butter, almonds or peanuts, jam, coconut oil, INVIGOR8 shake powder and salt (if using). Stir until it melts into a uniform liquid. Mix in the oats until thoroughly combined.
Transfer the batter into the loaf pan and press down into one even, compact layer. Spread the remaining jam on top in a thin layer.
Bake for 15 minutes, or until the edges start to turn golden brown. Allow to cool completely before cutting into bars or squares.

FTP (Functional Threshold Power) tests, while challenging, are crucial for cyclists aiming to improve performance. FTP represents the maximum power you can sustain for an hour and helps define personalized training zones, allowing for more effective and targeted workouts. Conducting regular tests, such as 20-minute or ramp tests, helps monitor progress, optimize pacing strategies, and prevent overtraining, ultimately leading to improved strength, speed, and endurance on the bike.
