Just posting a recipe I made this weekend…

1 c almonds (measured after soaking)
1/4 c buckwheaties
1/2 c dates
1/4 c dried fruit (I used mix of cranberries and blueberries)
1/4 c carob chips
1/4 c flaked coconut
1/8 c agave
2 T coconut oil
1/8 t salt

Pulse almonds and dates in food processor until well combined. Empty into mixing bowl and add all remaining ingredients. Mix well. Empty onto sheet of parchment or wax paper. Roll into log approx. 8 inches long. Press dough tightly and cinch roll ends (like a Tootsie roll wrapper). Chill until firm. Slice into 1 inch thick rounds.
