    Vegan Raw Bars

    Last Modified: March 15, 2021 - Published by: christieathome

    A simple recipe for these delicious, easy Vegan Raw Bars. They serve well as a snack or dessert especially if you're on the go or if you are craving something sweet.

    These bars have such a delicious texture to them. They're crunchy with some chew and I love how they're naturally sweetened too! Despite the name they are not totally raw because the ingredients are baked in the oven for a bit.

    Vegan Raw Bars

    These raw bars desserts are adapted from Aimee Song's recipe for Raw Bars. However, I'm using what I have in the house so thought I'd share my adaptation of her recipe on the blog. She uses sunflower seeds and quick oats but I substituted or left them out simply because I didn't have them.  I'm also adding roasted almonds for extra nutrition.

    All you need for these raw bite bars are rolled oats, chia seeds, coconut oil, medjool dates, roasted almonds, coconut flakes and a pinch of salt and pepper.

    These are great as a healthy snack, a boost of energy and best of all, you can pack them for school, work or on-the-go!  They do require some time in the freezer to settle them into shape before slicing.

    • 12 medjool dates pitted
    • ½ cup roasted almonds
    • ½ cup shredded unsweetened coconut flakes

    How to make raw date bars

    1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In a mixing bowl, add oats, chia seeds and coconut oil with a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix with your hands until oats and seeds are covered in coconut oil. Pour into a lined deep baking pan and bake for 20-30 minutes until golden.
    2. Meanwhile, de-pit your medjool dates.  Set aside.
    3. In a food processor, process your roasted almonds until they're grinded into finer pieces. Then pour in medjool dates into the processor and blend until nuts and dates are combined.
    4. After oats are roasted, allow this to cool.  Once cooled, add in the medjool dates and almond mixture. Combine well with hands.
    5. In a resealable contained lined with parchment paper, pour your mixture in.  Flatten it out with your hands or spatula.  Sprinkle shredded coconut flakes over top.  Seal with a lid. Place in freezer for 1 hour.  Remove from freezer and slice into 9 squares.  Serve and enjoy!
