Homemade KIND Inspired Bars

Author Sonja

Ingredients

  • 2 cups mixed nuts coarsely chopped
  • 1/3 cup honey I've made them with maple syrup for vegan
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
  • 1/4 cup ground flax seeds
  • 1/2 to 1 t chia seeds
  • optional 1/4 cup dark chocolate chips & 1 t coconut oil

Instructions

  1. Line an 8x8 pan with parchment paper, or grease the pan. I have done both.
  2. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  3. Combine all ingredients, minus the chocolate. If you combine the ingredients in a mixer, like a Kitchen Aid, the nuts will grind up more. So if you like be chunks of nuts, mix this by hand.
  4. Press nut mixture into your pan. I like to use a damp potato masher to make the process easier.
  5. Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until the edges are lightly brown.
  6. If you are drizzling on chocolate, do it now. (I like to melt 1 t coconut oil mixed in with the chocolate chips to smooth it more. I melt both together for 30 seconds in the microwave; mix and heat for another 30 seconds, and then drizzle.)
  7. Cool for 15 minutes, and cut into bars.
  8. Store in a cool, airtight container.
