Cherry Pie Bars | Dessert Recipe | The Ultimate Chef

YIELD: 8 SERVINGS

The taste is just like cherry pie but these little bars are actually pretty good for you! I recommend seeking out the highest-quality dried cherries (organic, unsulphured, with no added sugar) for these for the most authentic cherry-pie flavor.

Directions

In a food processor, combine the cashews, cherries, and salt and blend until coarsely crumbled.

Add in the dates and pulse until finely crumbled and the mixture easily comes together and stays together when squeezed.

Shape the mixture into individual bars by shaping into a tight disk, or square, and then cutting gently with a knife.

Wrap individually in plastic wrap or foil.

Alternatively, shape into balls for bite-size snacking.

Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
