Yay! It's Wednesday Cake!

 
Happy cake day, how is everyone's week going? If this pre-Christmas craziness is slowly getting to you, tonight after getting home from work, make those deliciously-healthy power bars to restore the balance in your universe...:)

Those goodies are truly the most indulging good-for-you guilt-free treats that you can snack on while on the-go. But don't be fooled, they would also make the most thoughtful and heartfelt homemade Christmas gift bundles to someone who is into all things health...

Convinced? Here is the recipe, get cooking:)

Nutty Quinoa and Chocolate Bars 
(Makes around 16-18 bars. Recipe from Green Kitchen at Home cookbook by David Frenkiel and Luise Vindahl)

Ingredients:
- 2 tbsp virgin coconut oil
- 10 fresh soft dates, pitted
- 1 cup / 250 ml / 250 g nut butter (you can make it yourself or just buy a jar in your local store)
- 1 tbsp fresh ginger, grated
-  1/2 cup / 80 g raw pumpkin seeds
- 1/4 cup / 40 g almonds, chopped
- 1 cup / 30 g puffed quinoa

Chocolate topping:
- 3,5 oz / 100 g good quality dark chocolate (70%)
- 1/2 cup desiccated coconut (unsweetened)

Melt coconut oil in a medium size sauce pan on low heat. Mash the pitted dates with a fork and add to the sauce pan together with the nut butter and freshly grated ginger. Stir around until it all comes together and cook for just a few minutes on low heat.

Remove from the heat. Add pumpkin seeds, puffed quinoa and chopped almonds.

Line an 8 x 10 inch / 15 x 20 cm baking pan with parchment paper and scoop the batter into it. Use the palm of your hands to press everything together tightly into an even rectangle, roughly 2/3 inch / 2 cm high. Put in the fridge or freezer while melting the chocolate on a double boiler / water bath.

Pour the melted chocolate over the bars and use a spatula to distribute it evenly. Sprinkle with desiccated coconut and put back into the fridge or freezer until cold and firm.

You can store the bars in the freezer and they will last for months - just thaw them slightly before serving. Or you also store them in the fridge, if you plan on eating them within a few days. Ta-dah!

P.S: Fancy more Wednesday cake goodness?
