Yummy Gluten-free, Grain-free Breakfast Bars!


GLUTEN-FREE, GRAIN-FREE BREAKFAST BARS
  • 1 ¼ cup blanched almond flour
  • ¼ teaspoon celtic sea salt
  • ¼ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ cup grapeseed oil
  • 1/8 cup pure molasses 
  • 1/8 cup of pure organic maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ cup unsweetened shredded coconut
  • ¼ cup pumpkin seeds
  • ¼ cup sunflower seeds
  • ¼ cup almond slivers
  • ¼ cup of crushed pecans
  • ¼ cup of crushed walnuts
  • ¼ cup of chia seeds
  • ¼ cup raisins or dried cranberries
  1. In a small bowl, combine almond flour, salt and baking soda
  2. In a large bowl, combine grapeseed oil, molasses, maple syrup, & vanilla
  3. Stir dry ingredients into wet
  4. Mix in coconut, seeds, nuts, chia & dried fruit
  5. Grease an 8x8 inch glass or ceramic baking dish with grapeseed oil
  6. Press the dough into the baking dish, wetting your hands with water to help pat the dough down evenly
  7. Bake at 350° for 20-25 minutes
  8. Serve!  If bars seem to crumble easily, you can add slightly more oil & molasses.  I just cool and keep bars in the fridge and they stay together just fine.
Makes 12-16 bars
