Super Energy Bars
A lot of energy bars give you energy with sugars, extracts, and other 'modified' products. My recipe contains little, if any of that. But...they'll keep you awake for hours!
The nice thing about this recipe is that its pretty much up to you. You can add what you want, if you want. You can eliminate or substitute ingredients without much hassle.
*Note, I buy Flax Powder with Goji and Blueberries already prepared*
Ingredients:
| What | Amount |
| Hemp Powder (or Hemp Hearts) | 3 TBSP |
| Wheat Germ | 3 TBSP |
| Flax Powder | 3 TBSP |
| Goji Berries (dried) | Combined with above |
| Blueberries (dried) | Combined with above |
| Almonds | 8 |
| Chia Seeds | 3 TBSP |
| Muesli | 3 TBSP |
| Concentrace (84 Minerals) | ½ tsp |
| Peppermint Extract | ½ tsp |
| Bakers Chocolate | 1 square |
| Cocoa Powder | 1 TBSP |
| Agave Nectar | 3 TBSP |
| Honey | 3 TBSP |
Combine the dry ingredients in a blender or food processor. Blend until powdery with some 'chunks' still visible.
Add the Concentrace and Peppermint extract. Blend again.
Add the honey and agave. Blend again.
Adding the honey and agave may be too thick for the food processor, if so, remove from food processor and proceed to mix by hand. They should just be firm enough to hold their shape.
TIP: Silicon baking sheets allow you to mix the mixture and form it into a bar on the same sheet.
Form the mixture into a large bar and place in the fridge for about an hour to firm up.
After one hour, remove them from the fridge and cut into bite size pieces. Return to the fridge for another hour to finish firming up.
Other possible ingredients are bee pollen, dried ginger, rolled oats, dried fruits, dried berries... the list is pretty much endless.
