Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups raw cashews
- 1.5 cups pitted Medjool dates
- 0.5 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon sea salt
Instructions
Line an 8x8 inch baking dish with parchment paper, ensuring extra paper hangs over the edges for easy removal.
In a food processor, add the raw cashews and pulse a few times until chopped into small pieces, but not fully ground.
Add the pitted Medjool dates, unsweetened shredded coconut, vanilla extract, and sea salt to the food processor.
Pulse the mixture until it begins to clump together. It should be sticky enough to hold together when pressed between your fingers.
Transfer the cashew-date mixture into the prepared baking dish.
Press the mixture down firmly and evenly using your hands or the back of a spoon until it is compact and smooth.
Refrigerate the mixture for at least 1 hour to allow it to set.
Once set, remove the block from the baking dish using the parchment paper overhang.
Cut the block into 8 equal bars.
Store the bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week or freeze for longer storage.
