INSTRUCTIONS
First process the nut or seed butter, dates, and plant milk until smooth.
Add remaining ingredients, except for the raisins and cinnamon, in a food processor.
Process until combined and a very thick dough is formed. If dough is too moist add some more protein powder. If dough is too dry add very small amounts of plant milk.
Add raisins and cinnamon and mix to combine.
Press mixture into a 9 inch parchment lined pan. Place in the fridge for 1 hour. Cut into 6-8 pieces.
Remove from the fridge and pan and cut into even bars.
Store in an airtight container for up to one week.
Enjoy!
