Ingredients
- 2 cups Medjool dates (pitted)
- 1 cup Raw almonds
- 1 cup Raw walnuts
- 0.5 cup Unsweetened shredded coconut
- 2 tablespoons Chia seeds
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Sea salt
Directions
Step 1
Place the pitted Medjool dates in a bowl and cover them with warm water. Let them soak for 10 minutes to soften.
Step 2
While the dates soak, add the raw almonds, raw walnuts, and shredded coconut to a food processor. Pulse until the mixture forms a coarse, sand-like texture.
Step 3
Drain the soaked dates, then add them to the food processor along with the chia seeds, ground cinnamon, vanilla extract, and sea salt.
Step 4
Process the mixture until it forms a sticky, cohesive dough. Stop and scrape down the sides of the processor as needed.
Step 5
Line an 8x8-inch square pan with parchment paper, ensuring the edges hang over for easy removal.
Step 6
Press the date-nut mixture firmly and evenly into the prepared pan using your hands or the back of a spatula.
Step 7
Chill the mixture in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to firm up.
Step 8
Once chilled, lift the parchment paper out of the pan and place the solidified mixture on a cutting board. Cut into 12 equal bars.
Step 9
Store the bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week, or freeze them for longer storage.
