These Sourdough Almond Maple Pecan Protein Bars are the ultimate bridge between seasons: soft, chewy, warmly spiced, and packed with good-for-you ingredients like oats, flax, sourdough discard, and plenty of protein to keep you going through cooler days.

This recipe was born from a desire to combine two things I love most: sourdough and protein. If you're tired of chalky protein bars, you've in the right place! These Chewy PB Chocolate-Dipped Sourdough Protein Bars are everything a protein bar should be, soft, chewy and packed with creamy peanut butter, oats, and protein powder to form the base. And the best part? Each bar gets dipped in rich, creamy chocolate for that extra bit of indulgence.

If cinnamon rolls and cookie bars had a baby, it would be these blondies. They’re buttery and golden with a warm cinnamon swirl laced into each bite. Soft in the center, crisp at the edges, and perfectly sweet without being over the top. Top with an easy cream cheese glaze to give them that classic cinnamon roll finish! I can't stop eating these, and I know you won't either!

Imagine the fudgiest, glossiest brownie you’ve ever had — now add sourdough discard for depth and chew, melty chocolate throughout, and a gooey coconut-pecan custard on top. It’s a love letter to German chocolate cake with a rebellious brownie twist. Nostalgic, indulgent, and oh-so good.
