Hey all, I'm interested in making a version of elena's power bars that stay together better at room temperature. Theyre great out of the fridge but once theyre out for awhile start falling apart.
I was wondering if anyone had any tips on how to make a binder that holds together better without using honey or more agave/sugar. Will adjusting the ratio of coconut oil to nut butter help? increasing flax? etc.
Any tips would be greatly appreciated.
Hey there! :)
I would definitely be suspecting the coconut oil as contributing to it falling apart at room temperature. I totally understand not wanting to add more sugar to the recipe also. I would try cutting the coconut oil amount at least in half, and then I would substitute medjool dates for the agave. It will still be nice and sweet while also helping to "glue" everything together :)
Best of luck!

anyone know the best way to store the power bars...can I leave them out, individually wrapped or do I nee to refrigerate?
Thanks!
