Ingredients for your coffee-packed snack
- 140g fine cut oats
- 70g e.g. almonds
- 30g peanut butter
- 50ml of vegan milk
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tube no normal coffee paste
optional: honey or agave syrup for sweetener.
Simple directions
Step 1
Add the oats to a bowl and pour the vegan milk over them, ensuring they're fully covered. Let the mixture rest for a few minutes to absorb the liquid, then set it aside for later use.
Step 2
Add the nuts to a pan and toast them over medium heat until they are lightly golden and fragrant.
Step 3
While the nuts are toasting, shortly soak the dates in hot water to soften them.
Step 4
Combine the toasted nuts, peanut butter, dates, and a touch of no normal coffee in a bowl. Add a pinch of salt to enhance the flavor. Transfer the mixture to a blender or food processor and blend until it reaches your preferred level of crunchiness.
Step 5
Mix the nut-date-coffee mixture into the oat mixture. The texture should be though and not too sticky. Put the mixture into a tin. We recommend using parchment paper as base and a plastic spatula to prevent sticking.
Step 6
Place the tin into the refrigerator for a few hours. This helps to later cut the mixture into bars.
Step 7
Once set, slice into bars of your preferred size. Optionally, top with some chocolate for an extra treat!
Et voilà! Your Energy Bars are ready to power you through your next outdoor adventure. With this powerhouse snack, you’re all set for any challenge that comes your way!
