Try these gluten free Israel Trail Bars

I am always looking for healthy snacks to take on my road trips throughout Israel.

I keep these in the freezer until I am ready to go… but sometimes I sneak some to enjoy with my coffee while preparing our newsletter or posts!

You can drizzle melted chocolate on top for festive occasions, but I prefer to mix in chocolate chips… it’s less messy and you get some chocolate in each bite!

2. Line and 8 inch x 8 inch pan with parchment paper
3. Mix chopped nuts, cinnamon, salt and almond flour in a large bowl
4. Stir olive oil, almond butter and honey over a low heat until blended and remove from heat.
5. Stir the egg into the liquid mixture and pour over the dry ingredients
