Made with Medjool dates, pineapples, and coconut, these no-bake, carrot cake-flavored energy bars are simple to make in your food processor. Top with additional shredded coconut, dried fruit, or raisins if desired.
Ingredients
- 1 cup whole raw almonds
- 10 pitted and chopped Medjool dates
- ¾ cup shredded carrots
- ½ cup unsweetened shredded coconut
- ¼ cup dried pineapple pieces
- 1 scoop vanilla protein powder
- 1 tablespoon almond butter
- ½ teaspoon coconut extract
- ½ teaspoon almond extract
- ½ teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
- ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
Directions
Step 1
Line a 9-inch square dish with parchment paper.
Step 2
Combine almonds, dates, carrots, coconut, pineapple pieces, protein powder, almond butter, coconut extract, almond extract, pumpkin pie spice, and cinnamon in a food processor fitted with the S blade. Attach the lid and pulse, stopping and scraping down the sides as needed, until everything is well combined and a crumbly, yet easily moldable, soft dough forms.
Step 3
Transfer dough to the prepared dish and press it down and smooth it out evenly.
Step 4
Chill in the refrigerator or freezer for 1 to 2 hours. Cut into 12 bars and either serve immediately or wrap individually to serve later.
