If you like Larabars, you will love these healthy no-bake Cashew Cranberry Bars. They are sweet and tart! They make a great portable snack.
Homemade Larabars
Larabars have only a handful of ingredients. Their Cashew Cookie bars have two ingredients: dates and cashews. I decided to make my own homemade Larabars.
I started with dates and cashews because I love that combination. I added dried cranberries to add some tartness. The combination works really nicely together.
The bonus is that there is no Cashew Cranberry Larabar flavor, yet.
I have included these vegan bars in my dessert category, because they are sweet. In grocery stores, Larabars are sold with the protein bars.
These homemade bars are great to bring on hikes, or for a long road trip.

How To Make Homemade Cashew Cranberry Larabars
- Mix the ingredients until coarsely ground. It will look like it won't stick together, but once you start working the mixture with your hands, it sticks no problem.
- Dampen your hands if needed to help the mixture stick even better.
- Use plastic wrap to help form the bars.
- For smaller bites and to make things easier, form balls.
