Ingredients

  • 1 cup cashews
  • 3/4 cup dates, soaked 30 minutes and drained
  • Pinch salt
  • Splash vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Line an 7 x 5” loaf pan or dish with parchment paper on the bottom and sides leaving some overhanging to act as a handle to get the bars out easier for cutting.
    Place cashews into a food processer and process until broken down and crumbly. Add dates, salt and vanilla and continue to process until mixture is sticky and well combined.
    Stop and scrape down the sides and bottom of the food processor if necessary and continue to blend until a sticky dough has formed.
    Be careful not to over process as its nice to have texture variance and different sized “bits” in your bars.
    Press the mixture into the bottom of your pan or dish evenly. Place in fridge or freezer for 1-2 hours, until firmed up and set.
    Lift out of baking pan using the parchment paper handles and cut into 4 bars or more smaller squares, depending on the size you prefer.
    Wrap individually and refrigerate until ready to eat.
