Easy All-Natural Protein Bars
- Process the Nuts:
- Place your almonds (or other nuts) in a food processor or high-speed blender. Pulse until chopped into small pieces—avoid turning them into a fine powder, but make sure the chunks are small enough to help the bars stay together.
- Add the Dried Fruit:
- Add your choice of figs, dates, or other moist dried fruit to the mixture and process until everything is evenly combined. Scrape the sides of the blender as needed to ensure all ingredients are incorporated.
- Add Mix-Ins:
- Stir in any optional add-ins, such as shredded coconut, chocolate chips, protein powder, or other desired ingredients. Be cautious with the moisture level; the mixture should be moist but not too wet. If it feels too dry, add a small amount of water to help it come together.
- Form the Bars:
- Transfer the mixture onto a flat surface and press it firmly into your desired bar shape. Ensure the bars are compact and even.
- Chill and Store:
- Place the bars in the fridge or freezer to set and firm up. Once chilled, cut them into individual bars.
- Enjoy:
- Store your protein bars in the fridge or freezer for longer freshness and enjoy as a quick, healthy snack!
