Ingredients

1 cup dates pitted and soaked in water 1 hour
1/2 cup walnuts raw
1/2 cup pecans raw
2 scoops collagen omit for Vegan
1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
2 tablespoons maca powder
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
1/8 teaspoon salt

Instructions

Place dates in a large bowl. Fill with water to soften for 2-3 hours.
Drain water from dates, then place in a food processor or blender with all remaining ingredients.
Blend on high for 2 minutes, or until dates and nuts have broken down into a doughy batter.
Line a 9 x 5 meatloaf pan with parchment paper, allowing the paper to hang over the edges of the pan for easy removal.
Transfer the dough into the pan, and spread it flat into an even layer in the corners of the pan. It’s best to use the palms of your hands.
Place the pan in the refrigerator for a minimum of one hour to harden.
Remove from the refrigerator, lift the parchment paper out of the pan with the hardened brownies, slice into 8 bars, and devour!

Notes

Maca is know as a superfood for its ability to boost the immune system, increase fertility, and balance hormones. It offers a wealth of health benefits! Drink maca as a tea with almond milk, or add it to baked goods and treats. It's an easy way to sneak this amazing food into your diet!
