Winter Running Energy Bar
- Minutes to Prepare:
- Number of Servings: 10
Ingredients
2 cups dates1 TBSP Water1/2 TBSP Lemon Juice1/4 Cup Coconut1/4 Cup Hemp Seeds1/4 Cup Pumpkin or Sunflower Seeds2 TBSP Dried Cranberries
Put Pumpkin seeds into food processor and chop until fine, remove from food processor and set aside.
Put dates, water and lemon juice in food processor and blend until dates become a sticky paste (play with the consistency). Now add in the rest of the ingredients and blend (mine formed a ball in the food processor).
When blended line a square baking dish with parchment paper and then press the mixture into the pan evenly. Put in the fridge for about an hour and then take it out and cut into your desired sized portions.
I find these ideal to take along on a winter run for energy since its so hard to find a gluten and nut free energy bar.
