Grind it fine grainy flour using food processor. The next ingredient you need to prepare Atkins nutrition bar is protein powder. You can use protein powder of whatever flavor you prefer. Vanilla flavor tastes well. The final ingredient you need to prepare Atkins nutrition bar is peanut or nut butter. Nut butter gives the bars a more interesting taste.

Dump in the protein powder to the flour and whiz the mixture in the food processor so that the flour and protein powder are well mixed. Add the peanut or other nut butter to the mixture of flour and protein powder. Blend the total mixture until the mixture has the texture of cookie dough and holds its shape when pressed together. Spread wax paper on the cookie sheet or in the roasting or cake pan. Put the prepared dough mixture on the wax paper. Cover it with another sheet of wax paper and roll or pat it out into the desired thickness. You can also press it into the roasting or cake pan with your hands, and then cover it with another sheet of wax paper. When properly frozen, remove and cut into bars of desired size. Wrap each bar in wax paper. Keep the bars in the freezer until just before eating.

You can also add any kind of fruit puree or a banana to give a moister, chewier texture to the bars. You can also add applesauce to add moisture and to hold things together. You can also grind dry spices such as cinnamon and nutmeg, and nuts or seeds such as pumpkin or sunflower seeds with the flour you use. Walnuts and pumpkin seeds add omega-3s, and Brazil nuts add selenium which is an antioxidant. You can also add dried fruits.
