Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams raw cashews
- 120 ml pure maple syrup
- 0.5 teaspoons sea salt
- 40 grams rolled oats
- 1 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
- 100 grams dark chocolate chips
- 50 grams chopped dried cranberries
Instructions
Line an 8x8-inch pan with parchment paper and set aside.
In a food processor, blend the raw cashews until they form a smooth cashew butter. This may take 5-7 minutes, scraping down the sides as needed.
In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the maple syrup, sea salt, and coconut oil. Stir until the coconut oil is melted and the mixture is well combined, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
Pour the maple syrup mixture into the food processor with the cashew butter. Blend until fully incorporated.
Transfer the cashew mixture to a large mixing bowl. Add the rolled oats, dried cranberries, and dark chocolate chips, folding gently until evenly distributed.
Press the mixture evenly into the prepared pan using a spatula or the back of a spoon. Make sure it's packed down firmly to ensure it holds together.
Chill the pan in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or until the mixture is firm to the touch.
Once chilled, lift out the block using the parchment paper and cut into 12 squares or bars.
Serve immediately, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
