Calories: 206kcal
Ingredients
- 1 cup Gluten Free rolled oats
- 1 cup almonds raw
- 15-18 dates
- 2 tablespoons flax meal
- 1 tablespoon hemp seeds
- 2 tablespoons chia seeds
- 1/2 cup shredded coconut flakes unsweetened
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/4 cup coconut oil melted
- 1/2 teaspoon almond extract
- 2 tablespoons mini chocolate chips dairy free
Instructions
- In a food processor layer dates, almond and oats. Pulse the blender several times until finely chopped.
- To the mixture, add coconut oil, salt, almond extract, flax meal, hemp, chia and coconut flakes. Blend on high until a sticky mixture forms. If a sticky mixture doesn't form, add more dates, one at a time, until it does.
- Remove the mixture from the blender and transfer to a small mixing bowl. Add chocolate chips to the bowl and stir until dispersed throughout the batter.
- Prepare an 8-inch x 8-inch square baking dish by criss-crossing parchment paper allowing it to hang over the edges of the baking dish for easy removal.
- Transfer the mixture to the baking dish, pressing it firmly into the pan to flatten and even it out.
- Refrigerate the bars overnight. In the morning, remove the bars from the baking dish by lifting the sides of the parchment paper up. Cut into 16 bars with a pizza cutter or large sharp knife.
- Store bars in the refrigerator up to a week or in the freezer up to one month.
