raw energy/trail mix bars covered in white chocolate




ahhh these are a new favorite. i made a big batch planning on freezing them for when i need a quick meal, but i ended up sharing them and eating them way too fast!

bars:
1/2 c sprouted raw almonds
1/2 c raw cashews
1/2 c raw pistachios
1/4 c raw pecans
1/4 c raw hemp seeds
1/4 c chia powder (ground chia seeds)
1/4 c flax meal
1/3 c dried golden berries (or cranberries or goji)
2 T bee pollen
1 t vanilla bean powder
2 T (or more) water

-add all nuts & seeds to a food processor and process until crumb-like. add dried berries, pollen, vanilla and water and process until it all sticks together. adding just enough water for it to come together. press evenly into a square lined glass dish and set in freezer for 1 hour.

white chocolate coating:
in a high speed blender (the twister blendtec jar works best here), add:
1/3 c cacao butter
1/4 c coconut butter
3 T cashew butter
few drops of stevia to taste
-blend until smooth.

-when bar base is hardened, remove from the pan and cut into rectangular bars. set on a parchment lined tray and pour white chocolate over the top, or dunk each individually. sprinkle with chopped pistachios, flaked sea salt and bee pollen. set in freezer until white chocolate is firm. enjoy!
