Delicious Chia Seed energy bars with coconut oil and dates for a natural energy boost.

Author: Wellness Mama

Recipe type: Breakfast

Ingredients

• 6 large Medjool dates
• ½ cup Chia Seeds
• 2 Tablespoons Coconut Oil
• Optional: ½ teaspoon natural vanilla extract or a pinch of cinnamon powder for taste
• Optional add ins: Dark Chocolate chips, shredded coconut, dried fruit (a couple tablespoons of any add-in)

Instructions

1. Remove the pits from the dates and pulse the dates in a food processor or blender until it forms a paste. In a medium bowl, mix the date paste with the chia seeds and coconut oil. It will form a thick dough.
2. Roll this dough into balls or press into the bottom of a glass or silicon baking dish and cut into squares. It can be eaten immediately in dough-form. We prefer to put it in the fridge or freezer to give it more of a chewy texture. These can be wrapped in wax paper or parchment paper and sent for lunches or snacks.
