Grain-Free Energy Bars Recipe

Recipe By The Spruce Eats

Energy bars are all the rage these days. Delivering quick energy and nutrition when you're on the go, it's no wonder why they are so popular. The only problem is a single bar can cost anywhere from $1 to $5, making it a pricey snack. Luckily, energy bars are easy to make at home for a fraction of the price, and are infinitely customizable. For this grain-free bar, nuts and nut butter deliver a high dose of protein, giving you a burst of energy and helping to curb hunger. Dates add natural sweetness and give the bar a nice chewy texture. The taste and texture are similar to a peanut butter cookie, so your healthy snack will feel like a treatAn added bonus is that this recipe freezes great Especially if you individually wrap the bars and stash them in a big zip-top bag. Just stick one or two in the fridge the night before and they'll be defrosted for the next day. If you're doubling the recipe, use a bigger pan or two 8-or 9-inch pans. See the variations note below the recipe for ideas on how to customize your energy bars.
