Pistachio Date Bars are a naturally sweet, no-bake treat made with Medjool dates, pistachios, and oats, offering a delightful mix of chewiness and crunch. They are a healthy, vegan-friendly snack with customizable options for flavor and texture.

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups pitted Medjool dates

1 cup shelled pistachios

1/2 cup rolled oats

1 tablespoon chia seeds (optional)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
  2. In a food processor, pulse pistachios and oats until roughly chopped.
  3. Add dates, chia seeds, vanilla extract, and salt. Process until the mixture begins to clump together but still has some texture.
  4. Transfer the mixture to the prepared pan and press firmly into an even layer.
  5. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to set.
  6. Once set, remove from the pan and cut into bars or squares.

Notes

Add shredded coconut or cacao nibs for extra flavor and texture.

Substitute pistachios with almonds, walnuts, or cashews.

Roll bars in sesame seeds or crushed nuts before chilling for an added crunch.

Add a pinch of cinnamon or cardamom for warm, aromatic spice notes.

Drizzle with dark chocolate after chilling for a decadent touch.

Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week or freeze for up to 3 months.
