These are super simple to make. You just throw all of the ingredients into a food processor and blend them together. Here are the ingredients:
1 tsp protein powder
1/4 tsp salt
5 medjool dates
2 tbsp maple syrup
3-4 tbsp coconut oil
2 tbsp dark chocolate powder
1/4 cup dried cranberries
2 packs stevia
Spray a mini-loaf baking pan with extra virgin olive oil. Add 2 tablespoons of the mix to each well; press mixture to fit mold. Refrigerate for one hour before serving. Keep unused bars in refrigerator until ready to be served.
Like always, use organic products. If you're new to eating organic, these ingredients can all be found at your local whole foods store. The maple syrup is pure -- not the kind in the cereal aisle next to the pancake mix! The label should indicate 'maple syrup' as the sole ingredient. Choose a dark chocolate that is 85-90% dark chocolate as well as soy and dairy-free. The maple syrup and dates will sweeten the bars.
By the way, I would add the almonds but nuts are on my inflammatory foods list.
"My son, eat honey, for it is good, and the drippings of the honeycomb are sweet to your taste." Proverbs 24:13
