These seed bars offer a delightful combination of textures and flavors, making them a satisfying snack any time of day. Crafted to be inclusive, they are naturally free of gluten, grains, and dairy, appealing to a wide range of dietary needs without sacrificing taste. The foundation of the bars is a medley of seeds, each contributing its unique character to the overall crunch.
This satisfying crispness is balanced by a slight chewiness, creating an enjoyable textural contrast that keeps you coming back for more. The taste is subtly sweet, derived primarily from the raisins, which also contribute to the chewy consistency. These can be swapped out for other dried fruits such as cranberries, apricots, figs, or black currants, allowing for a customized sweetness profile.
The bars boast a hearty dose of healthy fats, plant-based protein, and fiber, making them a nourishing choice to keep you feeling full and energized. They are perfect as a midday snack or a post-workout boost. Feel free to experiment with this recipe by incorporating other ingredients to suit your preferences.
Chopped nuts or even chocolate chips can add another layer of flavor and texture, but be mindful of how these additions might affect the bar's structure. If coconut isn't to your liking, simply leave it out and replace it with an equal amount of other seeds or nuts to maintain the right consistency. For optimal freshness, store these bars in an airtight container.
They will stay fresh on your kitchen counter for a couple of days or can be kept in the refrigerator for up to a week, ensuring you always have a wholesome snack ready to enjoy.
