Yield 16 bars

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup raw almond
1 cup raw walnut
2 ½ cups pitted date, roughly chopped
1 teaspoon salt, plus more to taste
½ cup water
1 ½ cups brown rice cereal
1 ½ cups old fashion oat
½ cup dried blueberry
½ tablespoon cinnamon
3 cups dark chocolate, chopped
2 tablespoons coconut oil

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350˚F (180˚C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Spread the almonds on one half of the baking sheet and the walnuts on the other half.
  • Toast for 10-15 minutes, or until lightly browned and fragrant. Let cool 20 minutes before roughly chopping.
  • In a food processor or blender, combine the dates, salt, and water, and process until well-combined.
  • Transfer the date mixture to a large bowl and add the brown rice cereal, oats, blueberries, cinnamon, and salt. Stir until well-combined. Add the chopped nuts and fold to combine.
  • Transfer the mixture to a parchment-lined baking sheet and spread flat with a spatula.
  • Cover with plastic wrap and chill in the fridge for 30-45 minutes to set.
  • In a large bowl, combine the chocolate and coconut oil, and microwave for 1½ minutes, stirring every 30 seconds, until melted and smooth
  • Pour ⅔ of the melted chocolate over the bars and spread evenly. Cover with plastic wrap and freeze for 10 minutes, or until the chocolate is set.
  • Invert the bars onto a cutting board and remove the parchment paper. Drizzle the remaining chocolate over the top. Return to the freezer for 10 minutes, until the chocolate is set.
  • Cut into 16 bars. Wrap individually in parchment paper and store in the fridge or freezer until ready to eat.
  • Enjoy!

These bars were so easy to make and they turned out great! I used a different type of chocolate chips (dark chocolate) and they were still delicious. I will definitely be making these again.
