Raw Backpacking Power Bars

Ingredients (use vegan versions):

    1 cup almond butter
    1/4 cup wheat germ
    1/4 cup ground flax
    1/4 cup ground pecan
    1/4 cup dates
    pinch of salt (if almond butter is unsalted)
    ALTERNATIVE: Coffee Bars
    Omit almond butter
    can sub dates with raisins
    add 1 teaspoon agave
    1/2 cup ground pecans instead of 1/4
    add 2 tablespoon ground espresso beans

Directions:

I know the coffee bars aren't raw. But I was backpacking and didn't care! I really needed the boost! Feel free to try maca!

The almond ones are AMAZING and addicting.

Process until pasty, form into bars on a mesh sheet for your dehydrator and dehydrate at 95 for an hour OR refrigerate for an hour. I found that dehydrating worked best as far as easy to handle, not as sticky..
