No-Bake Apricot Chia Seed Bars

These no-bake apricot energy bars are healthy and an easy to grab and go snack.

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup Medjool dates pitted
  • 1 cup dried apricots
  • 2 tablespoons chia seeds
  • ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 cup raw pumpkin seeds
  • 2 tablespoons white chocolate chips

Method
 

  1. Line an 8×8 or 9×9-inch square pan with parchment or wax paper.
  2. Place the dates, dried apricots, chia seeds, and cinnamon into a food processor. Process until the mixture comes together into a sticky mass.
  3. Break up the mixture slightly with a spatula. Add the pumpkin seeds and pulse until they're chopped into small pieces while still leaving a little crunch.
  4. Break up the mixture once more, add the white chocolate chips, and pulse a few times to lightly break and distribute the chips throughout the mixture.
  5. Press the mixture firmly into the prepared pan. For an even surface, place another piece of parchment paper on top and press with another pan or roll gently with a glass.
  6. Refrigerate for 30–45 minutes, then slice into bars or squares and enjoy.
