High Protein Granola Bars

I love a good grab-and-go snack but store-bought granola bars are often lower in protein. Try this little recipe for a homemade, high protein and zero-packaging alternative.

Ingredients:

• 1 cup ground almonds

• 1 cup rolled oats

• ½ cup nut butter (my fav is almond hazelnut), room temperature

• ½ cup shredded coconut

• 4 medjool dates

• 2 tbsp chia seeds

• 1 tbsp maple syrup

• 1 tbsp coconut oil, melted

Instructions:

1. Line a pan with parchment paper.

2. Remove seeds from dates and purée in a blender (or bullet) with a few tablespoons of water.

3. Add date purée to a large bowl and then add all other ingredients (use your hands in necessary)

4. Press onto the pan in a rectangular shape and let cool in the fridge.

5. Once the granola is cooled, slice into bars and enjoy!
