The sweet and nutty flavors in these No-Bake Cherry Pistachio Bars go well together. These bars are tasty and good for you because they are full of almond butter, pistachios, dried cherries, and oats. The chocolate layer on top makes it taste a little more decadent.
Ingredients: 1 cup dried cherries. 1 cup raw pistachios. 1 cup rolled oats. 1/2 cup almond butter. 1/4 cup maple syrup. 1/4 teaspoon salt. 1/2 cup vegan chocolate chips. 1 tablespoon coconut oil.
Instructions: Line a square baking dish with parchment paper. In a food processor, pulse dried cherries, pistachios, oats, almond butter, maple syrup, and salt until well combined and sticky. Press mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish, smoothing the top with a spatula. In a small saucepan, melt vegan chocolate chips and coconut oil over low heat, stirring until smooth. Pour melted chocolate over the pressed mixture, spreading evenly with a spatula. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until firm. Once set, remove from the refrigerator and cut into bars. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
