Pecan Pie Larabars

Another great recipe from MyWholeFoodLife.  Pecan Pie Larabars.  These taste so delicious, it's hard to believe they are good for you!  With just 3 ingredients, you can't go wrong.  Go ahead, have 2 or 3 or 4...

1 cup raw almonds
1 cup pecans
12 medjool dates (or prunes)

Blend the pecans and the almonds in a food processor until they are fine. Then mix in the dates. The nuts will release their natural oils so there is no need for water. I was a little short on prunes, so I added just a little bit of maple syrup to help bring it together.  Line an 8X8 pan with parchment, leaving enough room for some paper to stick out the sides. Press the dough evenly into the pan. Once it’s spread out, use the extra paper to press the dough down with your palms so it’s packed well. Stick in the fridge to firm up for about 2 hours.  Remove, cut into slices, enjoy!
