Reach for these bars next time you need a snack fix—they are full of delicious and good-for-you ingredients. Did we mention how easy they are to make?
1. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Use some coconut oil to oil a 11×7-inch baking pan.
2. Put the chia in a glass with ½ cup of water. Let this sit for 20 minutes until the seeds expand and form a gel.
3. Put the dates and the 2 tablespoons coconut oil into a food processor and whiz.
4. Mix all the other ingredients, including the chia gel, in a bowl, then stir in the dates until everything is evenly blended.
5. Press into the prepared pan and bake for about 20 minutes, or until golden brown.
