Preheat oven to 350°F and line an 8” x 8” baking dish with parchment paper.
In a bowl, whisk whole wheat pastry flour, vanilla protein powder, unflavored protein powder, peanut butter powder, baking powder and salt.
In a large bowl, whisk together applesauce, brown sugar and peanut butter.
Add eggs and vanilla and whisk.
Add dry mix to wet, and gently stir until just starting to mix.
DO NOT OVER-MIX or protein powder will make the bars gummy.
Add most marshmallows and fold to combine.
Transfer to baking pan, top with remaining marshmallows.
Bake for about 22-25 minutes, or until toothpick inserted into the center comes out dry.
Remove from oven and let cool completely.
Slice into 16 bars.
