Servings 10

Ingredients

1 cup cashews, soaked 3+hours and drained
1 cup dates, soaked 30 minutes and drained
1/2 cup rolled oats
1/2 cup desiccated coconut
2 scoops protein or collagen peptides powder
1/4 cup honey or maple syrup
2 teaspoons fresh grated ginger root or ground ginger powder

Instructions

Line a 7 x 5-inch 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.
In a food processor add all ingredients and process until the mixture is finely chopped and starts to stick together. Be careful not to over process as its nice to have texture variance and different sized “bits” in your protein bars.
Taste test and add more honey, ginger or vanilla if you think it needs it.
Transfer the mixture into the lined pan and spread out evenly with a spatula or back of a spoon.
Refrigerate the bars for at least 1-2 hours to allow them to set and firm up.
Once set, remove from the refrigerator, cut into 10-12 bars or more smaller squares.
Keep for up to 1 week in the fridge or up to 3 months in the freezer.
