We will take profit of the leftover pulp of a delicious latte to transform it into energetic coffee bars. We only have to add some seeds, dates and a sweetener that acts as a binder to the leftover pulp of our latte. In a few minutes we will turn the dough into a food that will keep for at least 1 month.
Making energy bars is a very simple way to reuse plant milk leftovers and turn them into a great snack. Over the years we have already published some recipes for energy bars and also for energy balls prepared with nut pulps, but without coffee.
Since we have discovered the option of making all kinds of healthy coffee lattes, we have been accumulating the pulps that contain coffee bits. This gives it a new flavor point in addition to the benefits that coffee brings.
The coffee latte can be made with your traditional Vegan Milker or with the new CBE and Emulsionizer models.
Coffee Energy Bars Recipe
You’ll see how easy it is to make energy bars. Once you’ve tried it will surely become a very recurrent resource to take profit of pulps. Let’s go with the recipe!
Ingredients:
![](https://www.veganmilker.com/wp-content/uploads/barritasCAFELATTE-1024x827.jpg)
- 100g of pulp (residue from the preparation of 500ml of coffee latte).
- 25 g of sunflower seeds
- 25 g pumpkin seeds
- 25 g sesame seeds
- 25 g oat flakes
- 100g pitted dates
- 2 tablespoons rice syrup
Options to customize the bars:
If you don’t have any of these ingredients don’t worry. The basic idea is to mix the 100g of pulp with 100 g of seeds, 100 g of dates and 2 tablespoons of syrup. This will give you the right texture for baking the dough.
In addition to mixing the seeds, dates and sweetener, you can also add other flavorings to your taste such as cinnamon, cocoa, coconut, vanilla, etc. and make different bars each time. The trick is to get a homogeneous and consistent mixture that you can mold with your hands without any problem.
Preparation:
Preparation time: 5 minutes + 20 minutes in the oven.

- Remove the pit from the dates and cut them into pieces the size of raisins or cocoa chips.
- Place the latte pulp in a food processor or food processor. If you don’t have either, you can do it by hand in a bowl.
- Add all the dry ingredients to the pulp and mix well. If you don’t have a food processor and you do it by hand, go one at a time.
- Finally, add the syrup and mix again until the dough is homogeneous.
- Spread a baking paper and place the dough on the paper. Place another baking paper on top and knead with the dough mixer until a 0.5 cm thick plate is formed.
- Remove the top paper, and mark the size of the sticks superficially with a knife.
- Bake at 180ºC for 10 minutes on each side. Keep an eye on them so they do not burn.
- Remove the tray from the oven and cut the bars along the lines marked with the knife.
- Let them cool and store them in an airtight canning jar. They will last at least 1 month.
Now you can enjoy your super nutritious coffee-flavored bars!
