Energy Bars
tweaked from
Amy Choate & Natural Philosophy
who adapted
from Emily Petty
1 1/2 c quick oats or gluten-free oats
1/2 c raw sunflower seeds
1/4 c chia seeds
1/3 cup coconut flakes (I used small
flakes)
1/3 c mini non-dairy chocolate chips
1/2 t powdered vanilla
pinch of salt
1/3 c organic raw agave syrup
1/2 c natural peanut butter
Mix all dry ingredients in large
bowl. Add wet ingredients.
Mix first with wooden spoon, then if
you feel inspired, use your hands.
Press batter firmly into an 8 x 8
glass pan.
Refrigerate for a few hours, then cut
into bars.
Notes:
Amy uses sprouted, then rolled oats,
sprouted & dried sunflower seeds & pink salt. Those are the main
differences.
I had run out of sunflower seeds, so
I used half seeds & half small walnut pieces. You can also add raisins, craisins,
omit the chocolate chips or just about anything goes.
Amy & her husband own our local
yoga/Pilates studio. Natural Philosophy offers an airy & uplifting environment with a variety of classes throughout the week. An organic food store sits below the studio.
