Raw Fruit and Nut Squares

Here’s the basic recipe for you to experiment with – use what you have on hand and get creative!

1) Process dry ingredients in food processor until desired consistency. (I like mine still a bit crumbly.)

2) Add in nut butter and oil. Pulse to combine until mixture sticks to itself when pinched.

3) Line a loaf pan with parchment paper. Firmly press nut mixture into pan using the back of a spoon.

4) Top with additional nuts, chopped dried fruits, desiccated coconut, etc. and press firmly to adhere (optional).

5) Place in the freezer 20-30 minutes to harden. Remove and cut into squares. Keep refrigerated until served.

(Light bars pictured contain a blend of walnuts, cashews, and almonds with apricots, figs, and almond butter. Dark bars contain a blend of walnuts, pecans, and almonds with pawpaws, mangoes, raw cacao powder, and macadamia butter. They’re topped with flax seeds and coconut and kick the other bar’s butt.)
