Date and Apple Protein Bar
This recipe was created by Chef Vishwa Mohan from AMS Food Services, UBC
Ingredients
- 36 Medjool Dates
- 300 g (375 ml) Almonds, raw
- 255 g (560 ml) Dried apples, unsweetened
- 180 g (375 ml) Walnuts, raw
- 150 g (250 ml) Golden raisins
- 9 g (15 ml) Ground cinnamon
Method
Step 1
Add the dates to a food processor and blend until they’re broken up. Add the dried apples, raisins, almonds, walnuts, and cinnamon.
Step 2
Pulse until combined – there should be small bits of nuts and raisins remaining, but not too big. Be careful not to over-process so it doesn’t get too sticky or greasy.
Step 3
Press the dough into a small pan lined with parchment paper, or just place the date dough on the parchment paper and press into a square/rectangular shape, then use a rolling pin to flatten the top.
Step 4
Cover and chill in the refrigerator for at least an hour for it to solidify. Cut into desired shape.
