Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 cup medjool dates (pitted)
  • 1 cup pumpkin seeds
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened coconut flakes
  • 2 Tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instruction

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper. 
  • Place the coconut flakes on the cookie sheet. Bake at 325 degrees for about 6 minutes or until golden brown. Stir once or twice so that it gets evenly toasted. Set aside to cool.
  • Place the pitted dates, pumpkin seeds, toasted coconut, unsweetened cocoa powder, and vanilla extract in a food processor. Process until the ingredients come together into a ball. You may need to stop the processor and use a spoon to evenly distribute the ingredients. 
  • Place a piece of parchment paper or plastic wrap on a cookie sheet. Place the mixture on top, and use your hands to shape and flatten into a rectangle. 
  • Wrap up the rectangle and refrigerate for two hours. Slice into 10 bars. Bars can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
