Grain-free No-bake Homemade Protein Bars
  1. Place nuts or seeds, flax meal, coconut, seed or nut butter and salt in the bowl of a food processor.

  2. Process until the nuts or seeds are ground into a coarse meal.

  3. Melt coconut oil over low heat. If the temperature of your home is around 76 degrees, you can skip this step and add the oil directly to the food processor as it will be soft enough to process easily.

  4. Add coconut oil, sweeteners and vanilla to processor bowl and process until well combined to form a thick, yet crunchy paste.

  5. Press the mixture into an 8x8 square pan (you can be quite flexible here. A 9x9 will work just fine. A larger pan will produce thin bars, while a smaller pan will yield thicker ones).

  6. Place in refrigerator to chill.

  7. If you are making your own chocolate/carob chips or chocolate/carob bar, prepare while the protein bars are chilling, but do not harden the chocolate chips or bar.

  8. Top bars with the chocolate chips or bar. Top either before the bars chill, or melt the chocolate topping and top with it.

  9. Press the topping onto the chilled bottom layer.

  10. Place back in refrigerator to chill.

  11. Cut into squares and serve.

  12. Store in refrigerator.
