Obsessed is an understatement 🤤 my favourite thing about experimenting with food has always been finding ways to enjoy what I love in healthier ways. Literally the ultimate cheat code to healthy eating is knowing your simple swaps 🍫
Simple paleo nanaimo bars 🥥🤎
base
1 1/4 raw pecans (unsalted)
1/4 cup raw cacao
1/2 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
pinch of celtic salt
1/3 cup room temp coconut oil
1 tsp ground vanilla bean powder
3/4 cup pitted dates
filling
1 cup of raw soaked cashews (soak overnight, then rinse/drain)
1/2 cup raw honey (@ziibi_honey is my go to 🍯)
3/4 cup melted coconut oil
1 tbsp ground vanilla bean powder
pinch of celtic salt
top layer
- raw dark chocolate (I used 1 bar of @chocosoltraders vanilla salt)
How to:
Base
- combine pecans, cacao, salt and coconut in a food processor, then add the coconut oil, vanilla and dates - mix thoroughly
- pack into an 8 inch square pan (I used a silicone one, but you can line with parchment if you’re using glass or metal)
- let firm in the fridge for 20 minutes while you make the filling
Filling
- combine all ingredients in the food processor and blend until smooth
- add to base layer then allow to chill for 20 minutes
Final layer:
- add the raw dark chocolate topping and allow to chill until solid or overnight
- pop out of silicone tray, slice and enjoy!
