Homemade healthier energy bars, with surprising ingredients, and no refined sugar!
מרכיבים
⅓ cup raw buckwheat groats
1⅓ cups rolled oats
¼ cup sunflower seeds
¼ cup pumpkin seeds
Optional: ¼ cup dark chocolate chips and/or dried fruit
4 table spoons coconut oil, or 40 g cocoa butter (the cocoa butter is preferred as it holds the bars much better when kept out of the fridge)
4 table spoons raw tahini (made from whole sesame seeds is preferable, as it is stickier)
3 table spoons date syrup
a pinch of salt
הוראות הכנה
Place the rolled oats and the buckwheat groats in an oven pre heated for 150 C for about 30 minutes until they brown (stay close and mix the grains every few minutes to avoid burning them). You can add the seeds for 10 minutes of roasting as well but that's optional.
Place the grains in a bowl with the seeds and the chocolate/dried fruit (if using) and mix.
Melt the coconut oil (or cocoa butter) in a bain-marie (inside a small pot over a larger pot with boiling water). Add the raw tahini, date syrup and salt and whisk well. Let chill, then pour oven the grains and sees mixture, and mix well.
Place the mixture in a 25x15 cm pan and use your hands to spread evenly and pack down. Lay a piece of parchment paper on top and use a drinking glass to press down firmly and pack the mixture in place.
Place in the fridge to set for an hour, then cut to the desired bars size. Keep in an air tight container in the fridge.
