Chocolate Nut Hemp Bars

Ingredients:

  • ½ cup all-natural almond butter
  • ½ cup organic honey
  • ½ cup coconut oil (plus more for greasing dish)
  • 1 cup gluten-free rolled oats
  • ½ cup hemp hearts (I like Manitoba Harvest)
  • ½ cup shredded coconut
  • 1 cup dark chocolate chips
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Directions:

  1. Add the almond butter, coconut oil and honey to a pot and melt over low heat, stirring often.
  2. Once the mixture is well combined, add in the chocolate chips and stir until they are melted.
  3. Remove the pot from the heat and stir in the remaining ingredients.
  4. Spoon the mixture into a 9×13 dish that has been greased with coconut oil.
  5. Place the dish in the fridge.
  6. Once it has set, cut into bars and serve.
  7. Store in the freezer so the chocolate doesn’t melt (it does not take long for them to thaw to enjoy!)
