Once chilled, remove the bars from the refrigerator and cut them into your desired size and shape. Enjoy immediately, or wrap individually for convenient on-the-go snacking.
For a richer flavor, toast the almonds and coconut lightly before blending. Watch carefully to prevent burning.
Medjool dates are recommended for their soft texture and caramel-like sweetness, but other varieties can be used. Adjust the number of dates to your preferred sweetness level.
If your mixture seems too dry, add an extra 1/2 teaspoon of coconut oil at a time until it reaches the desired consistency.
For a smoother texture, soak the dates in warm water for 10 minutes before using.
Feel free to experiment with other nuts, seeds, or dried fruits. Chia seeds, hemp seeds, dried cranberries, or chopped walnuts would all be delicious additions.
