These originated from Nakd bars, which I couldn't afford to keep buying. Looking at the ingredients on the back, we came up with an earlier version of these. They are delicious!
Ingredients
  • 1 cup dates
  • ½ cup raisins
  • ½ to ¾ cup oats
  • 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
  • Something wet: a ¼ cup apple juice or 2 tablespoons peanut butter, just enough to hold the batter together.
  • Optional extras:
  • You can add a variety of things – nuts, dried fruit, berries
Instructions
  1. Mix everything together in a food processor or blender.
  2. You want it well mixed, but not smooth.
  3. Either roll the batter into balls, then around a plate of coconut and place in the fridge.
  4. Alternatively spread it out on a baking sheet and refridgerate.
  5. Once set, cut into squares and enjoy.
