Ingredients

Instructions

  • Line an 8x8 baking dish with parchment paper. Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Place the almonds and cashews on a cookie sheet and toast in oven for 5-8 minutes, careful not to burn. Set aside to cool. Once cool, roughly chop about half of the nuts. Place nuts in a large bowl with freeze dried blueberries and hemp seeds.
  •  In a small saucepan, combine almond butter and maple syrup on low heat, stirring frequently. Once thoroughly combined, remove from heat and add vanilla extract and pinch of salt. Pour almond butter mixture over nut mixture and fold with a spatula until nut mixture is evenly coated.
  • Transfer mixture to the lined baking dish, and using a piece of parchment paper or plastic wrap, press mixture into baking dish until completely packed down (including corners!).
  • Place baking dish in fridge and allow to chill overnight before cutting into bars. The bars will seem set after a couple hours, but they will not hold together well unless they are able to set up overnight.
  • Once set, cut into bars and wrap each bar individually in plastic wrap and store in the refrigerator.
