Ingredients
Instructions
  1. Place a BPA-free 12-cup silicon muffin tray on a baking sheet and set aside. You could try to make this recipe in regular muffin tins with paper liners, too.
  2. Chop nuts into small pieces, about the size of a sunflower seed kernel. Add to a bowl with hemp seeds, coconut, protein powder and chia seeds. Set aside.
  3. Add coconut nectar to a large frying pan. Heat on medium-low heat, constantly stirring, until bubbles form. Add almond butter. Bring back to a bubble.
  4. Add remaining ingredients, cinnamon, vanilla and salt. Stir to mix.
  5. Pour coconut nectar mix into nuts bowl and quickly stir to coat. You will want to move fast here as the coconut nectar mixture hardens quickly.
  6. Divide the mixture into the muffin cups. Press down firmly.
  7. Transfer tray to fridge to cool for 1 hour. Remove from muffin tray and store in an air-tight container in the fridge for 1 month or freezer for 3 months.
