Apple cinnamon Energy Bars

 

  • 1 small apple, cored
  • 1 cup fresh or soaked dates
  • 1/4 cup soaked or cooked quinoa
  • 1/4 cup almonds
  • 1/2 cup (2 servings) of Vega Whole Food Smoothie Infusion
  • 2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp nutmeg
  • sea salt to taste

Procedure:
In a food processor, process all ingredients until desired texture is reached.  If you prefer a uniformly smooth bar, process longer.  If you would rather a bar with more crunch and texture, blend for less time.
Remove mixture from processor and put on a clean surface.  Shape into bars by flattening the mixture on the clean surface using your hands.  Place plastic wrap over top; with a rolling pin, roll mixture to desired bar thickness.  Cut mixture into bars.  Alternatively, form mixture into a brick; cut as though slicing bread.
As the bars dry, they become easier to handle.

Each batch makes approximately 12 x 50g bars.
