Ingredients:
- 1 cup Medjool Dates, pitted
- 1/4 cup Manuka Lab Manuka Honey 100+ MGO
- 1/4 cup Almond Butter (add a pinch of salt if your almond butter is unsalted)
- 3/4 cup raw Almonds & Pecans, mixed
- 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp ground cardamom
- 1/4 tsp allspice
- 1 1/2 cups Jumbo Oats
- 1/4 cup Dark Chocolate Chips
Method:
Step 1
Pre-heat the oven to 180 degrees C and toast the oats & almonds for 15 minutes.
Step 2
Blend the dates in a food processor and mix until they form a ball. Place the dates in a mixing bowl along with the oats, almonds, pecans, cinnamon, cardamom, all spice & chocolate chips.
Step 3
In a small pan, gently warm the almond butter and honey and pour over the oat, date & nut mixture allowing the chocolate chips to melt a little. Stir and ensure everything is mixed together and make sure the dates are evenly distributed through the mixture.
Step 4
Line a shallow tray with grease-proof paper and spread the mixture into the tray. Use the base of a flat, clean glass and flatten and smooth the mixture out taking care to push the mixture into the tray corners.
Step 5
Cover the tray with cling film and place in the freezer for 15-20 mins to firm up. Cut into 10-12 pieces and enjoy! Store in an air tight container for up to 10 days to keep the bars fresh. These bars can be frozen too and defrosted when required.
