Ingredients
  

Base Mix
  • 1 cup Medjool Dates Natural sweetness and binding agent; use fresh, soft dates for the best texture.
  • 1 cup Dried Cranberries Add a tart flavor and chewy texture; choose sweetened or unsweetened based on preference.
  • 1 cup Roasted Almonds Provide a satisfying crunch and healthy fats; can be replaced with walnuts or hazelnuts.
  • 1 cup Roasted Cashews Add creaminess and subtle sweetness; consider sunflower seeds for a nut-free option.
Binding & Texture
  • 1 cup Desiccated Coconut Adds lovely texture and flavor; opt for unsweetened coconut to keep sugars low.
  • 2 tablespoons Coconut Oil Helps to bind the mixture together; remember to melt it for easier incorporation.
  • 1 teaspoon Sea Salt Enhances the overall flavor; just a pinch will balance out the sweetness beautifully.

Equipment

  • Food processor
  • 8x8 inch Baking Tin

Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. Start by lining an 8x8 inch baking tin with parchment paper. Allow the paper to hang over the edges for easy removal later.
  2. In a food processor, combine Medjool dates, dried cranberries, roasted almonds, roasted cashews, and desiccated coconut. Pulse until finely chopped, about 30-40 seconds.
  3. Add the melted coconut oil and a pinch of sea salt to the mixture. Pulse again for another 30 seconds until well combined.
  4. Transfer the sticky mixture into the prepared baking tin. Use a spatula to press it down evenly and firmly.
  5. Place the baking tin in the refrigerator and let it chill for at least 2 hours.
  6. Once chilled, lift the mixture out of the tin using the parchment paper. Slice into 12 even bars.
