Granola Bars
Ingredients
- 8 dates, pitted
- 4 tbsp coconut nectar
- 5 tbsp almond butter
- 1 cup slivered almonds
- 1 1/2 cups Organic rolled oats
- 3 tbsp shredded organic unsweetened coconut
- ¼ cup unsweetened dried cherries (or dried fruit of choice)
Directions
1) Process dates in a food processor until small bits remain.
2) Place oats, almonds, coconut, dried fruit, and dates in a large mixing bowl – set aside.
3) Warm nectar and nut butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Stir and pour over oat mixture and then mix, breaking up the dates to disperse throughout.
4) Once thoroughly mixed, transfer to an 8×8-inch baking dish lined with parchment paper so they lift out easily.
5) Press down firmly until evenly spread and flat.
6) Put in the fridge to let chill for a while before you cut them into 15 small squares.
