How To Make Homemade Larabars
Report
Described as "fantastic" and "marvelous" by readers, these homemade Larabars are not only quick but taste just like store-bought! You can choose from 4 favorite flavors: apple pie, cherry pie, carrot cake, or chocolate chip cookie dough. While the brand name version always uses cashews, I've modified the cookie dough flavor to be made with oats for our nut-free friends.

Ingredients
Apple Pie
- ½ cup dates about 5
- ¼ cup raisins 35 g
- 1 cup dried apples 115 g
- ¼ cup almonds 35 g
- ¼ cup walnuts 35 g
- ½ tsp cinnamon
Cherry Pie
- ½ cup dates about 5
- 1 cup dried cherries 140 g
- ½ cup almonds 35 g
Cookie Dough
- ½ cup dates about 5
- ¼ tsp salt
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- ½ cup rolled oats 45 g
- ¼ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips 40 g
Carrot Cake
- ½ cup dates about 5
- ¼ cup raisins 35 g
- ¼ cup dried pineapple 35 g
- ¼ cup almonds 35 g
- ¼ cup walnuts 35 g
- ¼ cup unsweetened shredded coconut 25 g
- ¼ cup shredded carrot 25 g
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp coconut oil 5 mL
Instructions
- Soak: Pick the flavor you're going to make. It's best if you soak the dates (and if your recipe has them, the raisins) in hot water for 30 minutes before using.
- Blitz: Add all the ingredients to a food processor (if making Cookie Dough bars, do not add chocolate chips yet). Blitz until the ingredients are finely broken down and evenly combined.
- Shape: Shape dough into a rectangle. It should be about ½ inch (1½ cm) thick. For best cutting results, transfer to a plate or cutting board and freeze for 30 minutes.
- Cut: Cut rectangle into bars. Wrap each bar in parchment or wax paper. Store in the fridge until ready to eat.
Notes
- Store in an airtight container in the fridge for 2 to 3 weeks (the carrot cake Larabars have a shorter shelf life and should be enjoyed within 1 week.)
