I recently shared my frustration that I had caught myself buying “energy”, “protein”, or “health” bars feeling that I was doing something healthy only to realize I was eating glorified cookies or candy bars. These treats may have had some positive nutritional properties but they also contained a lot of over processed ingredients and refined sugar. With this in mind the recipe below caught my eye as a nice alternative. If you are looking for a healthy snack option that also takes care of your sweet tooth, give this puppy a try.
