Are energy bars<\/a> your weapon of choice for when a snack attack hits? Rather than shelling out for pricey bars with lots of chemically derived additives, save some money by preparing\u00a0your own. This foolproof, homemade Larabar recipe has a winning combination of nuts<\/a>, dates and other dried fruits, which deliver\u00a0fiber<\/a>, protein and a bit of natural sugar to fuel your morning or afternoon. Our pro tip: Add some cinnamon, vanilla bean, or raw cacao powder if you want to change up the flavor profile. These copycat\u00a0Larabars will need to chill\u00a0in the fridge for roughly an\u00a0hour, but we promise they’re worth the wait!<\/p>\n
