Description
A healthy and easy to make snack
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup prunes
- 1/2 cup whole almonds, coarsely chopped
- 1/4 cup pepitas (pumpkin seeds)
- 1/4 cup sunflower seeds
- 1/4 cup natural peanut butter
- 1/4 cup honey (for vegan option sub brown rice syrup)
- 1 1/4 cup old fashioned oats
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Line an 8X8 or 9X9 inch baking pan with parchment paper. Set aside.
- In the food processor, process the prunes until they are broken down and become a paste. Transfer the prune paste to a large bowl and add the rest of the ingredients. Mix very well. Press the mixture down into the prepared baking pan. Using another sheet of parchment paper, use something heavy to press the mixture into the pan very well. I used the peanut butter jar, but large cans of tomatoes works well, too. This is important as it helps keep the bars from falling apart. Take off the top piece of parchment paper, but save it.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-15 minutes, until the tops are just slightly browned. Take the pan out of the oven and carefully place the piece of parchment paper on top and again press it down firmly. Allow to cool in the fridge completely before cutting into bars. Enjoy!
