And Now The No Bake Raspberry Bars Recipe!

Makes 9 – 12 bars | Time: 20 minutes (plus chill time)

Crust Ingredients:

  • 1 c whole rolled oats
  • 1/2 c coconut flour
  • 1/2 c dates
  • 1/4 c tahini
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt

Filling Ingredients:

  • 1 can chickpeas, drained
  • 2 c raspberries
  • cream from 1 can of coconut milk
  • 2 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 2 tsp vanilla

Preparation:

  1. Line an 8×8 pan with wax or parchment paper.
  2. Place all of your crust ingredients into a food processor or blender and blend until you get a crumbly mixture that easily presses together. Be sure to scrap down the sides as necessary.
  3. While you are blending keep your intentions in your minds eye and state the following, ‘‘Sweet raspberries, bring forth joy. Your energies I do employ. Happiness within my soul I seek. May this light find me today, tomorrow and throughout the week.’ You may repeat this each time you blend your ingredients and/or whenever you have a piece of the bars. 
  4. Now press the crust firmly into your pan and place in the fridge while you mix together your filling.
  5. Next place all of your filling ingredients into your food processor and blend until smoothie. Again, be sure to scrap down the sides as needed to ensure everything is well blended.
  6. Remove your crust from the fridge and smooth your raspberry filling evenly over the top. 
  7. Place in the freezer for 30 – 60 minutes to set. 
  8. You can store in the fridge or freezer for 4 – 5 days. If storing in the freezer take out and allow to sit for 10 – 20 minutes to soften before slicing. I prefer to store in the fridge so there is no thawing necessary but either is good! However, don’t leave at room temperature or it will become too soft.

And you’re done!

Very easy to put together, super tasty, and incredibly refreshing.

These bars are great to match the Taurus season energy that is currently filling the air. I hope you enjoy them and may they help to bring much joy and happiness into your life!
