Homemade RX Bars without Egg White Powder
This is a copycat recipe to make your own homemade chocolate sea salt RX bars without egg white powder. These are high in protein, from the almonds, and hemp hearts which I use in this recipe instead of egg white powder like in the original bars.
Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups dates
- 1 cup hemp hearts
- 1 ¼ cup almonds
- ¾ cup cashews
- ½ cup cocoa powder
- ¼ cup chocolate chips
- chunky sea salt for top
Instructions
- Loosely fill a glass measuring cup with 1 ½ cups pitted dates. Cover in hot water and let soak for 10 minutes. Then drain the water, press down to remove any excess water.
- In the blender or food processor grind the hemp heart to a corse powder. Then add the cashews and almonds and blend until they are mostly corse sand as well. Add the cocoa powder and pulse a few times.
- Then add the drained soft dates to the blender or food processor. Blend for 10-20 seconds until the machine is struggling because it’s so thick. Then stop, put the mixture into a bowl, add the chocolate chips and continue combining with your hands.
- Once everything is mixed in well put the dough into a 9x13 pan, press it in with the back of a measuring scoop. Sprinkle on chunky sea salt, then cut into 16 rectangular pieces (4x4 cuts). Place the pan in the fridge or freezer to become more firm, at least 20 minutes. Optional:individually wrap each bar in wax paper. Then store in an air tight container or bag in the fridge up to three weeks or freezer for three months.
Notes
* The chocolate sea salt RX bar you buy at the store has some chunky almond pieces in them too. To make more RX bar type put half the almonds (¾ cup) in step two and add the other half (¾ cup) with the cocoa powder so you get some large chunks of almonds.
* To make thicker bars, make them in a 9x9 pan and get 8 rectangular bars or 9 square ones.
*I love them frozen! I just cut pieces of old frozen fruit bags to place between the bars so they don’t freeze together. Then take one out when I want it!
* These RX bars texture are softer than the ones you can buy.
