If you think protein bars are bland, try this: coffee protein bars with Greek yogurt. We’re talking about a bar that’s both creamy and crunchy, packed with caffeine and protein, and unapologetically delicious. No flavor sacrifices here—just smooth Greek yogurt, bold coffee, and a healthy dose of oats and nuts for texture. They’re easy to make and require no special kitchen skills (you could probably do this with your eyes half-closed, pre-coffee). These bars are practically the breakfast champions of protein snacks.
