Reminiscent of old-school cinnamon raisin bread, this delicious and easy-toeat snack is perfect for the car. It can also be made nut-free by substituting the almond butter with a sunflower seed butter and leaving out the walnuts (or substituting with dark chocolate chips).
Ingredients
- 4 eggs
- 1 cup (260 g) almond butter or sunflower seed butter
- 1/3 cup (115 g) maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons (28 g) grass-fed butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons (24 g) coconut palm sugar
- 2 tablespoons (14 g) ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ cup (35 g) raisins or currants
- ¼ cup (25 g) walnuts (optional)
How to Make It
- Preheat the oven to 325°F (170°C, or gas mark 3). Grease an 8 x 8-inch (20 x 20-cm) baking dish with coconut oil or palm shortening.
- In a large bowl, combine the eggs, almond butter, maple syrup, butter, coconut palm sugar, cinnamon, vanilla, baking soda, and salt and stir until smooth. Fold in the raisins and walnuts, if using. Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and move the dish around to ensure the batter is even. Bake for 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the middle of the bars comes out clean. Allow to cool for 30 minutes before cutting into bars and enjoying.
