Snickerdoodle Energy Bars

Ingredients

• 2 cups Medjool dates, pitted 

• 1 cup whole raw cashews

• 1 cup whole raw almonds

• 2 tsp ground cinnamon

• 2 tsp vanilla extract

• Pinch of salt (optional)

Directions

1. Add the Medjool dates to a food processor and process until it forms a thick fruit paste.
   

2.  Remove the paste and set it in a separate mixing bowl. Now process the almonds and cashews until they are fine, but not to a powder. Mix the nuts, cinnamon, and vanilla extract into the fruit paste until all ingredients are well combined.
   

3.  Press the mixture into a lined dish to form bars to the thickness of your liking. Use your fingers or the back of a spoon to smooth them out evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour. Cut into bars (or roll into balls) and store in the refrigerator for up to one week.
