No bake and Healthy Dates Bars are loaded with nutrients and are naturally sweetened with dates.

This is why you will love these Snack Bars:

  • They are naturally sweetened
  • Pack a ton of nuts
  • These are no bake bars and a fuss free recipe
  • Contain loads of minerals from dates
  • Perfect as a grab and go snack

Healthy Date Bars ingredients:

  1. Pitted Dates: I love to use medjool dates in these dates bar.
  2. Mixed Nuts: A combination of walnuts, cashews, pistachios and almonds (in equal amounts) tastes so good here,
  3. A tablespoon of clarified butter(ghee): You may also replace it with regular butter or even coconut oil. But clarified butter gives these bars an unbeatable flavor.

My Healthy Dates Bars are made with 3 simple ingredients. And this is a no bake snack bars recipe.

As dates are very sweet to taste, these bars require no extra sugar at all. And the stickiness in them helps to bind nuts with ease!

This is such an easy breakfast bar recipe to put together. Keep them refrigerated as they taste so good right out of fridge. Grab one in the morning and out the door you go!

Are dates a healthy snack food?

Undoubtedly! This humble sweetener and a great snack on their own contains a lot of minerals like potassium, magnesium etc. Also they are fibrous!

Healthy Dates Bars are the easiest Breakfast Bars that you will ever make.

What flavors go well with dates?

  • Dates pair well with any kinds of nuts and seeds
  • Spices like ginger, cinnamon and cardamom taste so good with dates
  • Sweeten your fruity smoothies with dates

    I’ve never heard the term “grounded dates”. Is that like puréed in a blender?

      Hi Natasha! Yes, we need to grind seedless dates. You may make use of a blender, but don't add any water to these as it will make the bars sticky.

    My hubby and I love these. I add golden raisins and unsulphured coconut flakes, raw pepitas, cashews and almonds. What goodness! Thank you.
