Homemade Nut Bar: A Nutritious and Easy Snack Recipe
Let’s make a delicious and nutritious nut bar, a universally loved snack, with this super simple recipe. Perfect for a healthy treat!
Nut Bar Ingredients- 4 Tbsp Almonds
- 4 Tbsp Cashews
- 4 Tbsp Walnuts
- 2 Tbsp Chia Seeds
- 3 Tbsp Maple Syrup (adjust sweetness to your preference)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, measure out 4 tablespoons of whole almonds. Using whole almonds provides a more satisfying crunch.
Step 2
Next, prepare 4 tablespoons of cashews. Cashews add a creamy texture and a rich, nutty flavor.
Step 3
Measure out 4 tablespoons of walnuts. Walnuts contribute their unique aroma and are rich in healthy unsaturated fats.
Step 4
Finally, measure 2 tablespoons of chia seeds. Though small, chia seeds are packed with omega-3 fatty acids and fiber, boosting the nutritional value.
Step 5
Now, add all the measured nuts and chia seeds into a wide frying pan at once. It’s best to maintain a medium-low heat.
Step 6
Toast the nuts for about 3 to 5 minutes, stirring continuously, until they become fragrant and slightly golden. Be careful not to burn them.
Step 7
Once the nuts are nicely toasted and fragrant, pour in 3 tablespoons of maple syrup. You can adjust the amount of maple syrup to your liking – add more for extra sweetness or less for a milder taste.
Step 8
After adding the maple syrup, quickly stir everything together with a spatula or spoon to ensure the nuts are evenly coated with the syrup. Even coating is key to prevent the bars from falling apart when they set.
Step 9
Spread the evenly coated nuts onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and let them cool slightly. Once completely cooled, you’ll have delicious, crispy, and nutritious nut bars! Enjoy this healthy homemade snack.
