Coconut Protein Bars

Aaaahhh, this is a deadly recipe!!!

A friend of mine shared this recipe and they are seriously good!
Although these are full of clean ingredients there are lots of healthy fats in there so you need to be really careful about portioning these out. And only eat one piece!!!

It’s a clean snack because it has your protein from the nuts and then your complex carbohydrate from your dates! These are great if you need a quick fix of something sweet, or if you're looking for a healthy protein bar to pack up and take with you.


INGREDIENTS

15 Medjool Dates
75g raw almonds
75g unsalted cashews
75g desiccated coconut
2 tbsp coconut oil
2 tbsp water

DIRECTIONS
Mix the almonds, coconut and cashews in a food processor until fine. Then add the dates, oil and water and pulse until a dough forms. Line an 8X8 pan with greaseproof paper leaving enough room for some to come out the sides. That way, the bars will be easy to remove and cut with a pizza cutter. Press down so that the mixture is packed in well and place in the fridge to set. It will take an hour or two. Slice and eat. These should keep in the fridge for a couple of weeks in an airtight container.
