Goji cacao energy bars
Cacao nibs are small pieces of cacao beans; most are heated but the recipe keeps them undamaged by heat (look for those labeled raw). They add a rich, dark-chocolate crunch to recipes. To make date paste, mash semisoft, pitted dates, such as medjool, by hand. Dates vary in moisture content, so you may need to add a teaspoon of water if yours don’t hold the dry ingredients together.

Figs are rich in antioxidants, but in processed cookies they are commonly smothered in refined flour and sugar. This recipe incorporates these healthy fruits, fiber-filled oats, and honey to make a treat with much less sugar than a standard energy bar or cookie. View recipe.
