A raw, vegan, gluten-dairy-wheat-sugar free, 100 % organic energy bar anyone? Yes yes y'all I did some cray cray energy bar shopping the other day. High in energy and deliciously yummy. What more can you ask for? But you know whats even nicer than those fancy bars? A homemade nutritional power punch bar! They are so easy peasy healtheezy to make. The energy bar I created includes roasted peanuts, dark chocolate, agave syrup, pumpkin seeds and the RECIPE goes like this.
Peel your peanuts and roast them with a good amount of agave syrup for 25 minutes in the oven (200 degrees). Make sure they stick to each other. They will need time to cool down before you do the chocolate coating. Melt your dark chocolate in a water bath and pour it over the peanuts, I did the extra topping on the warm chocolate side with pumpkin seeds, but feel free to exchange the pumpkin seeds with anything you like better.
My energy bars tasted heavenly good, I’m just mad addicted to peanuts and if they’re coming with a sweet coat, lord have mercy on me!
If you don’t have the time to make your on bars, you will find great alternatives out there. TheRawmeo balls are so good. The Mahalo bar taste like a high quality kick ass bounty. I was just WHOOP. Mind-blowing! I liked the Thumps Up packaging, but the bar itself was crazy sweet. I was in shock for a few minutes. You can find a great choice of bars in your local Veganz store. If you’re from Hamburg you should check out that cute vegan store called bevegend. Happy energy time everyone!
