Summer has ended, but it’s still pretty warm out! Try to cool down with this recipe for no bake lime bars! They are vegan and gluten free for everyone to enjoy.
I got this recipe from ginabnutrition.com. All credit goes to her.
Ingredients
For the Base
1/2 cup almond butter
1 tsp lime zest
1/2 lime juiced
1/4 cup maple syrup
3/4 cup rolled oats
1/2 cup ground almonds
Creamy Lime Topping
1/2 cup cashews soaked in boiled water for 20 minutes (or cold water overnight)
100 grams silken tofu
1/3 cup coconut cream the creamy part that rises to the top of a tin of coconut milk (to help this process you can place a tin of coconut milk upside down in the fridge overnight or for a few hours)
1 tsp lime zest
1 small lime juiced
3 tbsp maple syrup to taste
1 tbsp coconut oil, melted use 'refined' or 'odorless' coconut oil to avoid the coconut taste
Instructions
Line a 5×8" rectangular dish (or similar) with baking/parchment paper.
Make the oat flour by adding the oats to a blender and pulse for a few seconds until a fine flour forms.
Combine the base ingredients together in a medium bowl and mix until well combined. Press into the bottom of the lined dish.
Add the Creamy Lime Topping ingredients to a blender and blend until creamy – taste test and add any more sweetener to your preference.
Pour over the base, spread out and top with a little extra lime zest. Place in the fridge for 3 hours or overnight to set. Slice into squares and store in an airtight container in the fridge.
