So good! I just made them and subbed honey for brown rice syrup (did a little less than it called for), and goji berries for raspberries. Tasty!

In reply to Bhavna. Hello! I've never made them with jaggery syrup so I can't promise the results. It all has to do with the viscosity of the binder and having never used it before I'm not sure. If you do give it a try, let me know!

Hi! Loved tbe recipe. It reminded me of the balls my granny would make with puffed amaranth seeds. As for sweet binder, how about jaggery syrup. Will that help?

Love
Bhavna

Hi Sarah,

I know – it’s definitely not the best sweetener, but the amount per bar is not high, and I’ve balanced it with the fats and protein, so it should digest slower in this combination. As an alternative, I can only recommend creamed honey 🙂 Give it a try, I hope you love! And I’ll add this to the post, since I’ve had second thoughts about using it myself. I wish I could find something as binding and viscous that was vegan however!

xo, Sarah B

Sarah,
I absolutely love these bars as does everyone I’ve fed them to. I’m concerned about the high glycemic index of brown rice syrup! I had no idea it was 98. I fed some to a pre-diabetic and then thought to myself: “hmm ,maybe I should look up the glycemic index of brown rice syrup. “ With table sugar listing at 65, it seems like brown rice syrup is masquerading as a healthy food. Any recommendations on a substitute? Have you tried it with any lower glycemic sweeteners that also double as a binder? Many thanks, Sarah

Dear Sarah,
I’m absolutely hooked with your cacao hemp bars and that’s just one of many go-to treats I can count on thanks to you:)
I did them with puffed millet last time (in lack of puffed rice which I had a hard time coming by here in Vienna) and it worked out really well and super crunchy!
Taking time to make and enjoy food is such a big part of self-care and it really does help everybody:) You’re inspiring me constantly with sharing everything, thank you so much for that!
