coconut granola bars

These sweet and salty granola bars are soft, chewy, and pack huge flavor. We're combining almonds, coconut, oats, and chocolate for a wholesome and satisfying treat. Skip the oven and allow the bars to set up in the refrigerator or freezer.

No-Bake Chewy Coconut Granola Bars

Medjool dates, pitted (about 100-110 grams)

(113 grams) honey (or brown rice syrup)

(85 grams) almond butter (or any nut butter)

vanilla extract

salt

(128 grams) old-fashioned whole rolled oats

(80 grams) unsweetened shredded coconut (plus extra for topping, if desired)

(65 grams) slivered/sliced almonds

Tablespoons almond meal/almond flour (or oat flour)

(60 grams) finely chopped semi-sweet chocolate or mini chocolate chips

Line an 8-inch or 9-inch square baking pan with parchment paper with enough overhang on the sides to easily remove the bars from the pan. Set aside.

Pulse the dates in a food processor until they form a chunky paste. (You&#8217;ll have about 3 Tablespoons paste.) Or, if you don&#8217;t have a food processor, very finely chop the dates.

Whisk the date paste/chopped dates, honey, almond butter, and coconut oil together in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Try to break up the dates as much as you can. Once combined and warm, remove from heat. Stir in the vanilla extract and salt until combined.

Stir in the remaining ingredients including the chocolate, if using.

Press mixture into prepared baking pan and top with extra coconut, if desired. Pack the mixture down as much as you can. I recommend using the back of a flat spatula to really press it tightly.

Chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour or freeze for 30 minutes before cutting into squares.

Store leftover granola bars in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. They get a little sticky if left out for several hours.

These are amazing! I chopped up the dates, left out the sliced almonds and used pumpkin seed butter (nut allergy) used maple syrup and oat flour. So good! Love love love!
