How to Prepare Cherry Jam Cookie Bars [Vegan, Gluten-Free, Raw]

  1. Place all cookie bar ingredients (except milk) into a food processor and blend. Should take one or two minutes. Process until the dry mixture will release enough oils and sticks together when pressed. Add a tablespoon of milk and pulse to combine.
  2. For the jam filling, simply blend the thawed cherries with some cherry juice and a handful of dates until it becomes smooth. Add a tablespoon psyllium husk and pulse together. Let sit on the counter top for about 20 minutes.
  3. Divide the dough in half, roll it 1/8 to 1/4-inch thick, and spread the jam over the base, roll out the remaining dough and gently press down on the jam to create a sandwich. Place in the refrigerator for a few hours (3-4 hours) to set and then cut into bars.
