Coconut, Date and Cocoa Bars

May 25, 2011 by Alex McLeavy

Raw, Vegan, Gluten Free

Minimise packaging with D.I.Y. raw energy barsorganic energy bars 

 
For lunchboxes, mid-morning pick-me-ups and even desert these fudge-like  treats are indulgent with a nutritious edge. Soaking the nuts is an optional step, but it helps deactivate enzymes which inhibit digestion. These will keep in the freezer for about 2 months.

organic raw energy bars

 

Ingredients (makes about 8 bars)

100 g mixed raw almonds and hazelnuts

50 g raw cashews

35 g dessicated shredded coconut

3 Tbsp coconut oil, lukewarm and liquid

150 g Medjool dates, pitted

2 Tbsp cocoa powder

1 tsp brown rice syrup

pinch sea salt

1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

 

Method

1. Soak almond and hazelnuts in 2 litres cold water overnight. Line a 20 x 10 cm loaf tin with baking paper.

2. Drain nuts and pulse in a food processor with cashews to create a coarse meal. Add remaining ingredients and 2 tbsp water. Pulse on medium setting until everything comes together in a ball.

3. Press mixture into loaf tin, cover surface with baking paper and flatten with a flat object. Place in the freezer for at least 4 hours before cutting into bars of approximately 2 cm width. Wrap and store in an airtight container in the freezer.
