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
-
Line a pan with parchment
-
Remove seeds from dates and purée in blender (or bullet) with a few tablespoons of water.
-
Add date purée to a large bowl and then add all other ingredients (use your hands in necessary)
-
Press onto pan in a rectangular shape and let cool in fridge
-
Once cold slice into bars and enjoy!
