Raw Granola Bars


Ingredients

2 ½ cups rolled or quick oats
1 cup raw pumpkin seeds
1 cup raw sunflower seeds
½ cup chopped dates
2/3 cup peanut or almond butter
1/2 to 2/3 cups agave nectar or honey
1/8 teaspoon sea salt (adjust based on which nut butter you use)
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp vanilla

Method

Mix oats, pumpkin seeds, and dates in a large bowl.
Whisk together nut butter, sweetener, and sea salt. Pour into oat mixture, and mix well, till everything is sticky and combined. If it’s too dry, add a bit more agave.
Press mixture into a shallow baking dish that you’ve lined with foil or saran wrap.
Cover with more foil/saran, press well into the baking dish, and refrigerate for 4 hours.
Cut into bar shapes, wrap, and keep refrigerated till ready to use.

They will last two weeks in the fridge.
