dates

🥗Healthier: dried figs

💰Cheaper: raisins

Dried figs add sweetness and moisture, while raisins are economical.

Add almond nuts to a pan on medium to low heat and toast them, tossing to prevent burning.

Add cashew nuts to the pan and toss them as well.

Once the almond and cashew nuts are toasted, add pumpkin seeds and sunflower seeds to the pan and continue to toast them.

Remove some cashew nuts and chop them roughly if desired.

In a bowl, combine the remaining seeds: hemp seeds, chia seeds, and black sesame seeds.

Add salt to the bowl with the seeds.

In a food processor, add raisins and puree them until sticky.

Prepare a baking dish with parchment paper or grease paper.

Pour the toasted nuts and seeds mixture onto the parchment paper.

If the mixture is sticking to your hands, sprinkle some grapeseed oil on your hands to help work with it.

Compact the mixture as flat and even as possible in the baking dish.

Place the baking dish in the fridge for a few hours until firm.

After a few hours, remove the mixture from the fridge and cut it into desired sizes and shapes.
