Ingredients
  

1 cup pitted processed dates

1 cup rolled oats

1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut

1/2 cup almond flour

1/4 cup honey or maple syrup

1 cup ripe mango, pureed (approximately 1 large mango)

1/4 cup coconut oil, melted

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Pinch of salt

Additional shredded coconut for topping (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Base: In a food processor, add the processed dates and blend until a sticky paste forms. Next, incorporate the rolled oats, shredded coconut, almond flour, honey (or maple syrup), melted coconut oil, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Pulse the mixture until everything is thoroughly combined and forms a cohesive, sticky mass.

    Mix in Mango: Transfer this blended mixture into a mixing bowl. Carefully fold in the mango puree until it’s evenly distributed throughout the mixture. The consistency should be thick and sticky, ensuring the mango is well incorporated.

      Press into a Pan: Line a 9x9 inch baking dish with parchment paper, allowing some overhang on the edges for easier removal. Using a spatula or your hands, firmly press the mango-coconut mixture into the dish, spreading it evenly across the bottom of the pan. Ensure it’s compacted well.

        Chill: Cover the baking dish tightly with plastic wrap. Place it in the refrigerator and allow it to chill for at least 2-3 hours, or overnight if possible, until the mixture is sufficiently firm.

          Slice and Serve: After chilling, remove the bars from the pan using the overhanging parchment paper for support. Cut them into squares or rectangles, based on your preference. For an added touch, roll the bars in extra shredded coconut for a delightful finish.

            Storage: Store the No-Bake Mango Coconut Bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. They may also be frozen for extended storage; simply thaw them in the fridge before enjoying.
