Having made bars like this, I'm a huge fan of this recipe. While dates are REALLY sticky feeling, the clean up surprisingly well with very little mess too. In short, these paleo power bars are GREAT!
Ingredients
- 2 ¼ cups pecans, lightly toasted
- ¼ cup cacao powder
- 15 large medjool dates, pits removed
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 10 drops stevia
- 2 tablespoons agave nectar or honey
- ½ cup dried cranberries (you can add more if you like)
- Blend pecans and cacao powder in food processor until combined and coarsely ground
- Add in dates and process until blended into dry ingredients
- Process in vanilla, stevia and agave until well combined
- Stir (or work in) dried cranberries with a spoon or by hand
- Press mixture into an 8 x 8 inch baking dish
- Freeze for 1 hour, or until firm, then cut into 16 squares
- Makes 16 squares
