No-Bake Coconut Date Bars Recipe

Wholesome Energy in Every Bite
No-bake coconut date bars are a perfect healthy snack made with just a few natural ingredients. They’re soft, chewy, and packed with nutrients ideal for fueling your day without added sugar or baking. This recipe is quick, beginner-friendly, and irresistibly delicious.
Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups pitted Medjool dates
- 1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
- ¾ cup raw almonds (or cashews)
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- A pinch of sea salt
Instructions
1. Prepare the Dates
If the dates are dry, soak them in warm water for 10 minutes, then drain well.
2. Blend the Base
In a food processor, pulse almonds until finely chopped. Add dates, shredded coconut, coconut oil, vanilla, and salt. Blend until a sticky dough forms.
3. Press and Shape
Transfer the mixture into a parchment-lined 8×8-inch pan. Press it down firmly and evenly using your hands or a spatula.
4. Chill and Slice
Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to set. Once firm, cut into bars or squares. Store in the fridge for up to 10 days.
Why These Bars Stand Out
- No refined sugar – Sweetened naturally with dates.
- Nutrient-dense – Rich in fiber, healthy fats, and energy.
- Easy and portable – Ideal for snacks, school lunches, or workout fuel.
Optional Add-ins
- A handful of dark chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds or flaxseeds
- A sprinkle of cinnamon for warmth
