Ingredients

• 1/2 cup natural peanut butter
• 1/3 cup unrefined coconut oil
• 1/4 cup VitaFiber® IMO syrup
• 1/4 cup raw honey
• 1/3 cup lucuma fruit powder
• 2 tbsp chia seeds
• 1/2 tsp sea salt
• 2 tbsp tocos
• 1 1/2 tbsp maca powder
• 4 1/2 cups brown rice krispies
• 1/2 cup currants
• 1/3 cup sunflower seeds - roasted for best flavor
• 1/4 cup hemp hearts
• (optional) handful of mini chocolate chips

Method

1. Lightly melt the coconut oil, peanut butter and honey together in a microwave safe mixing bowl. Stir in the VitaFiber® IMO syrup, lucuma, sea salt, tocos, maca and chia seeds until evenly combined.
2. Add the brown rice krispies, currants, sunflower seeds, and hemp hearts. Combine the entire batch until the krispies are evenly coated, and the other mix-ins are evenly distributed. (It's critical you equally distribute the peanut butter mixture, so the krispies bind together!)
3. Press into a lightly sprayed 9x13 baking dish, and then use a sheet of wax paper to press firmly down into shape.
4. Refrigerate at least 90 minutes.
5. Slice into bars or bites, and store in an airtight container in the fridge.
6. Enjoy!
