Date-Nut Breakfast Bars

[Guest guest]

To Shamie - TSP is Texturized Soy Protein, virtually the same as TVP, because

most TVP's use mostly soy.

To everyone - I've formatted about 70 recipes from this book. I really enjoy

this book, my notes reflect the order the recipes appear in the book, so it

begins with breakfast bars and ends with desserts.

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

3/4 cup frozen apple juice concentrate

1 1/2 cups pitted dates

1 cup flax seed

1/2 cup chopped walnuts

 

Place the apple juice concentrate and dates in a saucepan. Cover and cook over

medium-high heat for 5 minutes, until softened.

 

While the dates cook, grind the flax seed in an electric coffee grinder 1/3 cup

at a time. Pour the ground seeds into a food processor with the S blade

inserted. Add the dates. Process until the mixture is doughlike. If the

mixture rises above the processor blades, shut off the machine and push the

mixture down with a spatula. Then, turn the machine back on.

 

Pour into a bowl and mix in the walnuts.

 

Turn the dough into a 9 x 9-inch cake pan and press flat with damp hands to

cover the entire bottom of the pan evenly. Cut into eight bars. (make three

evenly spaced cuts in one direction and one in the other.)

 

Remove fromm the pan. Place in a storage container or in plastic sandwich bags.

Refrigerate.
