Silken tofu substitute?

Exchange plantain starch for corn starch for extra prebiotics (I haven't tried this, but if you are going to use starch, it might as well benefit your body).

I've made chocolate peanut butter protein bars with cocoa powder, coconut oil, pb, and vegan protein powder.

Another option is to make vegan bars with dates, cashews, almonds, dried cherries, chia seeds. Yum! Kind of like a Larabar.

Perhaps not directly useful for making chewy protein bars : Silken tofu has a pudding consistency (and is often used to make vegan puddings and mousses), so I think something like greek yogurt or even whipped avocado to keep it dairy-free would work as a general replacement for silken tofu.

Protein bar recipe:

1 1/4 cup rice krispies 1 cup dry oats 1/4 cup chopped nuts 1/2 cup peanut butter 1/3 cup honey 2 tbsp ground flax seed 1/4 cup dried fruit 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Toss all the dry ingredients. Melt the peanutbutter and honey on low heat until blended. Add the vanilla extract, blend, let sit until stove area smells delicious. Mash wet ingredients with dry ingredients in a large bowl--wear gloves--and mash finished mixture into a greased 7x5 or similarly sized pan.

Lots of room for substitutions, too: grape nuts cereal over rice crispies, agave nectar over honey for the vegans, dried cranberries or cherries or what have you. Store it in the fridge and it makes between 6 or 8 bars depending on appetite.
