Ingredients

  • 1 cup goji berries
  • 1 cup dried figs
  • 1⁄4 cup raisins or currants
  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 1⁄4 cup liquid coconut oil
  • 1⁄4 cup almond butter
  • 4 Tbsp. raw honey
  • 1⁄2 tsp. salt
  • 1 Tbsp. ground cinnamon

Directions

  • Soak the goji berries, figs, raisins, and oats in water for 20 minutes to reconstitute.
  • Remove the stems from the figs. Warm the coconut oil to a liquid by placing the container in a bowl of warm water for a few minutes.
  • Process all the ingredients together in a food processor until well mixed.
  • Form the batter into a large square, then cut into rectangles. Refrigerate for a minimum of 1 hour to help the coconut oil solidify. Alternatively, dehydrate the bars for 12 hours at 115°F.
