Ingredients

3 cups dry almonds (soaked and re-dehydrated or unsoaked)
2 tablespoons coconut oil (warmed)
2 cups almond butter
¼ cup coconut oil (warmed)
¼ cup agave nectar
1/3 cup coconut (shredded)
½ cup unsoaked cashews (chopped)
½ cup raw granola (optional)

Recipe Directions

1. Combine first 2 ingredients in a food processor until creamy to make the almond butter needed, or you can use store bought. However, if you are making the almond butter solely for this recipe, you can add the whole amount of coconut oil (2 tablespoons + 1/4 cup).

2. Blend the next 3 ingredients in the food processor.

3. Add coconut and chopped cashews and pulse until well combined. You want to keep pieces of cashews intact.

4. Spread mixture into a wax paper lined loaf pan.

5. Top with raw granola and place in fridge to firm up.

6. When firm, slice into 1” cubes.

HI - I listed it twice in case you are making your own almond butter the 2 tbs is for that. IF not and you are using store bought then omit it.

Hi,

You have coconut oil listed 2 times. I guess I am missing something. Was there something else?

I would substitute coconut butter instead of oil.

What about adding cacao butter? THe nuts and teh cacao butter sounds great!

I would also be very careful with shredded coconut as the harder the coconut flesh the harder to digest. In addition, the whole point of living foods...easy to assimilate, easy to eliminate.

I think this has merit and could use some fine-tuning.

Also, I wonder at 1/4 cup of agave. That seems over the top. That is, unless there is some sweet tooth out there! LOL

Thanks for sharing this! StephenH
