Trail Mix Chocolate Fig Bars

A high protein snack bar that is healthy, vegan & organic! There is no soy or dairy in this bar and I added cacao powder for that yummy chocolate flavor. 




Ingredients:
2 cups of Organic Raw Mixed Nuts (walnuts, almonds, sunflower seeds, and pumpkin seeds)
8 oz dried Organic Calimyrna Figs
2 tbs Organic Cacao Nibs
1/8 cup Organic Coconut Flakes
1 Organic Orange Finely Grated into Zest
2 tbs Organic Cacao Powder
2/3 cup Organic Spelt Flour
2 tsp Organic Chai Seed
2/3 cup Stevia Cup-for-cup
1/2 cup Raw Blue Agave Nectar
1/2 tsp Organic Ground Cinnamon
1/8 tsp Organic Ground Cloves
Organic Coconut Oil

Directions:
1.) Heat oven to 300 degrees F. Lightly grease with organic coconut oil and flour a 10-inch glass baking pan.
2.) Stir together flour, cacao powder, cinnamon, cloves, chai seed, and orange zest. Add nuts, figs, nibs and cacao.
3.) In a small saucepan, combine agave and stevia and place over low heat. Increase heat to medium and cook, without stirring for about 7 minutes.
4.) Immediately pour over mixture and mix until dry ingredients are coated. Mixture will be thick.
5.) Transfer to the prepared pan, using moistened fingers press evenly into pan.
6.) Bake for about 35 minutes until toasted.
