INGREDIENTS
•
Base:
•
2 cups nuts or seeds (almonds, sunflower, pumpkin, or macadamia. Mixing several kinds is fine too. Soak and dry these if at all possible. Sub 1 1/3 cups coconut butter for nut free.)
•
1/2 cup flax meal (flax seeds ground in a blender or spice grinder) (alternatively, use rice bran or protein powder)
•
1/2 cup shredded coconut (unsweetened and organic if possible)
•
1/2 cup seed or nut butter (again, made from soaked and dried nuts is preferable. Use coconut butter for nut free.)
•
⅜ teaspoon salt (I use Real Salt)
•
1/2 cup coconut oil (or alternative solid fat. Use cocoa butter or butter for a more warm weather-stable bar)
•
2 Tbsp liquid sweetener - use 1/32 tsp of stevia extract (read my post on stevia here.)
•
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
•
Topping:
•
Top with either my Homemade Chocolate / Carob Bar or melted Homemade Chocolate / Carob Chips (1 cup of chips per bar recipe)
