Figgy Fuel Bar Recipe

Name: Figgy Fuel Bar Recipe
Yield: 16 bars
Ingredients: 2 cups slivered almonds; 1 cup dried black Mission figs (about 6 ounces), stemmed and halved; 2 1/2 cups dried Medjool dates (about 1 pound), pitted; 3 tablespoons natural smooth unsalted almond butter; 1 teaspoon finely grated orange zest (from about 1 medium orange); 1 teaspoon vanilla extract; 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon; 1/2 teaspoon fine salt; 1/4 teaspoon finely ground black pepper; 1 cup crispy brown rice cereal

"Here’s a fiber-packed, joyful, fruity bar. Figgy Fuels are modeled on Lärabars, which we like because they don’t contain ingredients that we can’t pronounce. The label on the Pecan Pie bar lists dates, pecans, almonds—that’s it. We took out the pecans and added dried figs for more chewiness, and brown rice cereal for good crispy fun. Vanilla, cinnamon, and orange zest keep us running back for more. What to buy: Crispy brown rice cereal can be found at most health food and grocery stores.
