HIGH PROTEIN GRANOLA BARS

I love a good grab and go snack but storebought granola bars are often lower in protein. Try this little recipe for a homemade, high protein and zero packaging alternative.

Ingredients 

1 cup ground almonds

1 cup rolled oats

½ cup nut butter (my fav is almond hazelnut), room temperature 

½ cup shredded coconut 

4 Medjool dates

2 tbsp Chia seeds

1 tbsp maple syrup 

1 tbsp coconut oil, melted

​

​

​

Instructions 

1. Line a pan with parchment

2. Remove seeds from dates and purée in blender (or bullet) with a few tablespoons of water.

3. Add date purée to a large bowl and then add all other ingredients (use your hands in necessary)

4. Press onto pan in a rectangular shape and let cool in fridge

5. Once cold slice into bars and enjoy!
