Homemade Pumpkin Chocolate Bars ( Raw, Vegan )

Yes, pumpkin and chocolate makes a wonderful pair! My biggest weakness is chocolate, does that surprise anyone? Make a batch of these Pumpkin Chocolate Bars, eat a ton few in the name of “taste testing” and then just because you’re a lovely person share the rest for Halloween.

This chocolate bar recipe is completely customizable, you can add :
nut butter, nuts like pecans or walnuts, raisins, shredded carrots, chocolate chips, cacao nibs …..

Experiment with the amounts, adding a little bit at a time until you’re happy with the taste and texture. There all sorts of ways you can make these bars look more fun and attractive for the kids. I just used some melted chocolate but you can use melted white chocolate and draw spiders, spooky things or whatever the inner artist in you tells you to do.

Recipe makes 12
Ingredients:
2 cup raw pumpkin, chopped
1 cup shredded coconut
1 tbsp coconut nectar, or date puree
1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
