Date Bark Recipe



Date bark recipe, date bark is an easy to make healthy snack to include in your weight loss diet. It's easy to make and does not require any cooking or baking. You just make a layer of dates and top it with the rest of the ingredients and freeze for 30 mins. You could call it as a lazy man's healthy snack. Its that easy. 



The taste is similar to that of snicker bar but of course healthy and only 5 ingredients. The best thing about homemade goodies is that you know what's going into the ingredients, which for me is something valuable. 

I always try to source high quality ingredients in my recipes because I like to enjoy what I make without any guilt. The recipes I share also is enjoyed by my family and I created Skinny Recipes because I wanted to skin out all the unhealthy fats, processed ingredients etc. So, I take an extra effort to source high quality ingredients....its a very personal choice of mine. 

If you are looking for easier ways to make peanut butter I have already shared the recipe. Refer the video below


The ingredients for date bark:

15 medjool dates

4 tbsp peanut butter or any nut butter of your choice

3-4 tbsp roasted and salted peanut halves

125 gms of dark chocolate

1 tsp coconut oil (wood pressed)


---

Method:

Slice the dates into half and remove the pit

On to a parchment paper, place the dates cut sized down.

When placing the dates, make sure you are overlapping the dates a little.

Once all the 5 rows of dates are done.

Drizzle peanut butter on top, sprinkle peanuts, and spread melted chocolate and spread some more peanuts on top.

Keep in the freezer for 30 mins.

Slice into your desired shapes.

Store in airtight glass container and it will stay good in the refrigerator for a couple of weeks.
