Energy bars- perfect on the go snack!

These are sort of granola/ gluten free cake bars depending on what you decide to add in them. I mainly added desiccated coconut along with some oats, goji berries and lin seeds. Makes about 8 squares.

ENERGY BARS

• 2 tbsp melted coconut oil
• 2 tbsp honey (more if you like very sweet snacks)
• 2 tbsp peanut butter
• 1 egg
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 70 g cassava flour (or if you want them to be abit more indulgent and moist half almond meal half cassava)
• 1/2 tsp baking soda
• Couple of tablespoons of water
• About two handfuls (in all) of whatever you want! I used coconut, oats, cinnamon, orange zest, sesame seeds, goji berries and lin seeds

1. Mix your peanut butter, coconut oil, egg, vanilla and honey together for a couple of minutes until it turns into a thick and creamy batter.
2. Fold in your flour and baking soda to make your base batter.
3. Add in whatever you desire, i.e, coconut, oats etc. If the mixture is very dry and crumbly, add in enough water to bring it all together.
4. Spoon the mix into a greased baking dish, flatten down with the bake of a spoon and bake for about 20 minutes until golden brown at 170 degrees Celsius.
5. Wait till completely cool to cut into squares.
