Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Medjool dates, pitted
- 0.5 cups Raw almonds
- 0.5 cups Raw cashews
- 2 tablespoons Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoons Sea salt
- 2 tablespoons Optional mix-ins, such as chia seeds or shredded coconut
Directions
Step 1
Place the pitted Medjool dates in a food processor and pulse until they begin to form a sticky paste. Stop and scrape down the sides as needed.
Step 2
Add the almonds and cashews to the food processor. Pulse until the mixture is crumbly but holds together when pressed.
Step 3
Add the cocoa powder, vanilla extract, sea salt, and any optional mix-ins (such as chia seeds or shredded coconut). Pulse again until all ingredients are fully combined and the mixture resembles a thick dough.
Step 4
Transfer the mixture to a parchment-lined baking dish or sheet. Press it down firmly and evenly into a flattened, compact layer using your hands or the back of a spoon.
Step 5
Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the bars to firm up.
Step 6
Once chilled, remove the mixture from the baking dish and slice it into 8 bars or your desired serving sizes.
Step 7
Store the energy bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks or freeze for longer storage. Enjoy as a healthy snack or pre/post-workout treat!
