Coconut Bars
Servings: 10–12 (depending on how you cut them)
Preparation Time: 10 minutes
Ingredients:
- 2 cups nuts
- 20 pitted dates (You’ll find these in the dried fruit section of your grocery store.)
- 3/4 cup dried, unsweetened coconut
- 2–3 teaspoons coconut oil
Directions:
Place your nuts in a food processor and run it until you get a pretty fine texture. It’ll take about a minute. Add your dates, coconut, and 2 teaspoons of the coconut oil and pulse until combined. You want it to be a consistency that will stick together, so if you think you need more stickiness, add the 3rd teaspoon of coconut oil.
Dump the mixture out into an 8 x 8-inch pan and spread it out evenly. Place it in the fridge to harden up a little, then cut into bars or squares. Store in the fridge and enjoy as a nice healthy snack!
