In a small pan, on low heat warm the vitafiber and vanilla extract until small bubbles form. You can also microwave vitafiber syrup in a mug for 30-40 seconds. Turn off heat and slowly add flour/protein mixture. Mix as well as you can then pour mixture between a folded piece of parchment paper and kneed until mixed entirely. Fold in peanut butter balls. Mold into bar shape (I used two large knives to press and flatten). Store in an air tight container at room temperature.
