these look awesome. love how i can make them without a dehydrator...
thanks for the recipe!
hi hoorahforraw!...I'm glad these turned out for you! I will have to try them with coconut:)
Omg I am so embarrassed; My bars do notreally look like yours so I kept re-reading the instructions and arrghhh, I just saw the first ingredient is for figs not dates, LOL (well I guess i know for next time)...
ps, I did use fresh shaved coconut instead of goji berries and the coconut was so yummmmmyyyyyy!!!
This is the first raw recipe besides chocolate that I have made that has turned out; Yayyyyyy!!!
I am so happy to have found these bars which do not require a dehydrator. With practice hopefully mine will one day look as great as yours, :)
hi hemp33! i do keep them in the fridge for freshness,i wrap each one in waxed paper so i can grab one and go!the coconut sounds like a great addition:)
hi 67FordGirly....thanks,and they are verrrry filling!( you can cut them in half or shape them into balls) i love old cars too,i have a '66 olds 442!
These look great! Now I don't have to power up the dehydrator. I think I'll add some coconut flake along with the goji berries. Should they be kept in the fridge?
They look delish...
And they look very filling, too!
