Fig-Pecan Energy Bar Recipe

Media_httpfarm8static_aajaa

These energy bars look incredibly good! It's definitely something I'm going to try. I never buy the energy bars at the store simply because they are just full of junk. I mean really, Dr. Ben Kim is right; they are only sugar with some protein powder thrown in and some fat for calories. I would much rather eat a chocolate bar with peanuts in it than an energy bar bought at the store.

Because unsuspecting health nuts assume an energy bar will be high quality energy, they pay an over-inflated price for them as well.

I would love to experiment with this recipe and see if it works as well with other nuts or other dried fruits. I am thinking that the stickiness of the figs is what holds them together. I doubt prunes would work.
