Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1 cup raisins
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil, in liquid form
- 1 tablespoon hot water
- 1 1/2 cups sliced almonds
- 2 tablespoons ground flax
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
- Pinch of salt
- Coconut oil nonstick spray (helpful but optional)
Instructions
- Prepare ingredients: Gather all the ingredients and have the coconut oil in liquid form for easy blending.
- Process mixture: Add all ingredients into a food processor and pulse until the mixture becomes a paste-like, uniform texture, scraping down the sides as needed to ensure everything is evenly combined.
- Shape bars: Line a standard loaf pan with plastic wrap and lightly coat it with coconut oil nonstick spray. Scoop the mixture into the pan and press it down firmly and evenly to form a compact layer.
- Freeze: Cover the pan and place it in the freezer for about 1 hour or until firm to set the bars.
- Cut and store: Use the plastic wrap to lift the chilled mixture out of the pan. Cut into six bars, wrap each individually with plastic wrap, and store in the freezer or refrigerator. These bars are best enjoyed chilled or at room temperature.
Notes
- Ensure the coconut oil is in liquid form for easier blending.
- If you prefer softer bars, store them in the refrigerator instead of the freezer.
- You can substitute almonds with other nuts like walnuts or cashews if desired.
- These bars are best consumed within two weeks for maximum freshness.
- Use plastic wrap for easy removal from the pan and clean cuts.
