- 1 cup raw chopped cashews
- 1/4 cup unsalted shelled sunflower seeds
- 1/4 cup dried tart cherries or roughly chopped dried apricots
- 26 pitted dates or fresh figs, roughly chopped

Preparation
Step 1
Line an 8" square baking pan with plastic wrap. Coat the inside with cooking spray. In a food processor, combine the golden and brown flaxseeds, chia seeds, oats, cashews, sunflower seeds, cherries, dates, cinnamon, coconut (if using), protein powder, cocoa powder, honey, and salt. Process ingredients for about 1 minute, or until nuts and fruit are broken into small pieces and the mixture starts to move around the blade in one mass. Pour batter into the pan and press vigorously to compact. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour. Cut into 16 bars. Leave refrigerated until ready to eat.
