NO-BAKE POWER BITES



No-Bake Power Bites image

Delicious and filling snacks my friend Danielle told me about. I cannot get enough of these! Nothing processed and jam-packed with nutrition. I took these on a 5-hour flight and they kept me satisfied. Also my mom is on a no-processed-food cancer diet and these are a life-saver for the days she doesn't feel well enough to juice and cook! Store bites in the refrigerator or freezer.

POWER BITES

Categories     Vegetarian

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 T coconut oil
1 c raw unsalted almonds
1/2 c raw unsalted sunflower seeds
1/2 c raw unsalted hulled pumpkin seeds
2 t chia seeds
2 t sesame seeds
1 c dried unsulfured apricots, chopped
1/2 c dried dates, pitted and chopped
1/2 c raisins
2 T almond butter
2 T honey
2 t fresh lemon juice
2 t vanilla
1/2 t salt

Steps:

  • Lightly oil an 8x8 pan with coconut oil and set aside. Place the almonds in a food processor and pulse until they are medium chopped. Add the sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, chia seeds, and sesame seeds and pulse a few more times, just until the nuts and seeds are well mixed. Don't over process or you may wind up with nut butter. Transfer the mixture to a bowl and set aside. Add the apricots, dates, raisins, almond butter, honey, coconut oil, lemon juice, vanilla, and salt into the food processor and process into a paste with small chunks still in tact. Add the nut-seed mixture and pulse until the ingredients are well distributed and combined. The texture will form a sticky mass (it shouldn't be loose). Lightly dampen your hands with water, scoop out the mixture and evenly press into the prepared pan, smoothing the top. Place the bars into the refrigerator for 1 hour or the freezer for 30 minutes to set, then slice them into 1 inch bites or larger size bars if you prefer. Store in an airtight container for 2 weeks or in the fridge for one month.
