A recipe for homemade chewy granola bars featuring oats, pecans, hemp hearts, chia seeds, nut butter, and RYZE Mushroom Coffee, with dates forming the sticky base. The bars are pressed, chilled, and optionally drizzled with chocolate.
Soak the pitted dates in hot water for 10 minutes, then process them in a food processor until a sticky ball forms. Transfer the date paste to a large mixing bowl. In the same bowl, add the remaining ingredients (oats, chopped pecans, hemp hearts, chia seeds, nut butter, and RYZE Mushroom Coffee) and mix thoroughly with your hand. Press the mixture firmly into a parchment-lined pan. Chill the bars in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours before slicing and, if desired, drizzling with chocolate. Store the finished granola bars in the refrigerator.
