Ingredients
Ingredients
- 120 gm Dates pitted
- 60 gm Chia Seeds
- 1 Tbsp Coconut Oil
- ½ tsp Cinnamon ground
Instructions
- Process the pitted dates in a food processor until a smooth paste forms. This creates the base for the energy bars.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the date paste, chia seeds, coconut oil, and ground cinnamon.
- Mix thoroughly until all the chia seeds are evenly distributed and well coated with the date paste. This ensures the bars will hold their shape.
- Line a small baking dish or container with plastic wrap, leaving some overhang on the sides. This will make it easier to remove the bars later.
- Transfer the chia seed mixture to the prepared dish and spread it evenly. Press down firmly to create a compact layer.
- Cover the dish with the overhanging plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 3-4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the bars to set. Chilling helps the bars firm up and makes them easier to cut.
- Once set, remove the bars from the dish using the plastic wrap overhang. Cut into desired size and shapes. Serve chilled.
