Description

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cups rolled oats (I used gluten-free)
• 1/2 cup dates, pitted & finely chopped
• 1/4 cup raisins
• 3/4 cup raw almonds, slivered or chopped
• 1/4 cup dried strawberries
• 1/4 cup dried blueberries
• 1/4 cup raw sunflower seeds
• 1/4 cup raw pumpkin seeds
• 1/4 cup coconut flakes
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1/2 cup coconut nectar (substitute with brown rice syrup )
• 1/2 cup sunflower seed butter (or almond butter)

Directions

• In a large mixing bowl, mix all of the dry ingredients. Combine well
• In a small pot, over medium low heat, melt the coconut nectar & sunflower seed butter. Stir constantly. Remove from heat and let cool for 1-2 minutes.
• Pour liquid over the dry mixture and combine well.
• Line a 8x8 baking tray with parchment paper and press the mixture down firmly. I used a small jar wrapped in plastic wrap (to keep from sticking) and rolled mixture down firmly & evenly.
• Pop in fridge for about 2 hours to set (or freezer for 30 minutes)
