Method

[/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.16″ text_font_size=”16px” text_line_height=”2em” header_3_font=”DM Serif Display||||||||” header_3_font_size=”20px” header_3_line_height=”1.4em” custom_padding=”0px|||||” text_font_size_tablet=”” text_font_size_phone=”14px” text_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”]

  1. Place the nuts in the food processor and pulse until mealy in texture.
  2. Add the cacao nibs, hemp seeds, goji berries, cacao powder, coconut, and salt, then pulse again until well incorporated.
  3. With the motor running, add 1 date at a time. After 7 dates, you will see the mixture ball up on one side of the blender bowl. Push the mixture down and process again to make sure all dates are mixed in.
  4. On a large piece of parchment paper, press the mixture in an even layer about 1/4 inch thick. With a knife, score rectangular pieces approximately 2 by 3 inches. If desired, press additional hemp seeds or coconut on the surface of the bars.
  5. Fold up the parchment paper to encase the bars and place in the fridge to chill and firm up.
  6. Break apart and take individual bars with you on a trail run, hike, or bike ride to sustain you throughout your training session. Keep up to a week – if they last.
