Description

Ingredients

• 1 cup pitted Medjool dates, packed (about 12 dates)
• 1 cup almonds (I used roasted salted almonds)
• ½ cup walnuts
• ¼ cup vanilla plant-based protein powder (can sub coconut or oats)
• ¼ cup cacao powder
• 1 tbsp chia seeds
• Heaping ¼ tsp salt (go heavy if using raw almonds)
• 1 tbsp water or almond milk (if needed)

Directions

• Line a loaf pan with parchment or wax paper.If your dates are hard, soak them in a bowl of warm water for a few minutes to soften up.
• Place dates, almonds and walnuts in the bowl of a large food processor. Process a minute or two, or until a crumbly mixture is formed.
• Add protein powder, cacao powder, chia seeds, and salt. Use a spatula to break apart and stir mixture a bit by hand before processing again until a dough ball is formed. If mixture wont form a ball, add a tablespoon of almond milk.
• Place mixture in pan and flatten well with hands until even and smooth. Freeze overnight.
• Cut into 8-10 bars. Store in air-right container in freezer for best texture.
