Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups dates pitted
  • 2 cups dried apricots
  • 2 cups almonds
  • 4 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • 2 tablespoons old-fashioned rolled oats

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the Fruit: Add the dates and dried apricots to a food processor. Blend the ingredients until they are finely minced and begin to form a sticky, cohesive mixture.
  • Add the Almonds : Add the almonds to the food processor and pulse until roughly chopped, leaving some texture for crunch.
  • Combine the Remaining Ingredients : Transfer the mixture to a large mixing bowl. Add the honey, chia seeds, and rolled oats. Mix well with a spoon or your hands until all the ingredients are evenly combined.
  • Shape the Bars : Line a 9x9-inch baking dish with parchment paper. Press the mixture firmly and evenly into the dish, ensuring there are no gaps.
  • Chill to Set : Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until firm.
  • Cut into Bars : Remove the chilled mixture from the baking dish and cut into rectangular bars of your desired size.
  • Keep and Enjoy: Place the bars in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to two weeks. Grab one anytime you need a quick snack or an energy lift!
