Ingredients

½ cup tahini (see Notes)
¼ cup maple syrup
2 tablespoons melted coconut oil
¼ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon vanilla
1 cup gluten-free oats
⅓ cup pumpkin seeds
3 tablespoons hemp hearts
1 tablespoon whole or ground flax seeds
1 tablespoon chia seeds
2 tablespoons unsweetened shredded coconut
2 tablespoons mini dairy-free chocolate chips (plus more, melted, for the chocolate drizzle)

Instructions

In a medium bowl, stir together tahini, maple syrup, coconut oil, salt, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Next, stir in oats, pumpkin seeds, hemp hearts, flaxseed, chia seeds, and coconut until well combined. Fold in chocolate chips, if using.
Press mixture firmly into a parchment-lined 8x8-inch pan. Pack it down firmly using a flat-bottomed glass or spatula.
Drizzle with melted chocolate, if using.
Chill (see Note below) for at least 1 hour, preferably longer. Slice into bars and store in an airtight container in the fridge. Enjoy!

Notes

If your tahini is extra runny, use a heaping 1 cup of oats or reduce the tahini slightly.

For a firmer freezer bar, chill it in the freezer for 20 to 30 minutes before slicing. These bars will last around 5 to 7 days in a covered container in a fridge.
