1/2 cup Tahini paste 140 g

1 eggs size large
3 tbsp maple syrup 45 mL
120 g quinoa flakes 1 1/4 cup
1/2 cup unsweetened coconut flakes 50 g
1/3 cup flax seeds, ground 55 g

Before you start

A blender or food processor will be very useful to mix the ingredients. A mill or food processor will be very useful to grind the flax seeds.

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 175°C/350°F. Line a 20 cm (8 in) square baking pan with parchment paper. Grind the flax seeds, then set aside.
  2. Using a food processor, cream the tahini, banana, egg and maple syrup together.
  3. Stop the food processor then add the remaining ingredients and mix well.
  4. Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking pan. Bake in the middle of the oven for about 25-30 min.
  5. Take the pan out of the oven, then let cool at least 30 min. Cut into 12 bars and serve.

Observations

These bars can be kept in airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week or 1 month in the freezer.
