Lemon Shortbread Collagen Bars

1: Add 1/4 cup of cashews to high-speed blender or food processor, and quickly process until chopped into small pieces. Set aside.

2: Add all other ingredients to the blender besides collagen. Blend until completely smooth and well combined (may take a few minutes).

3: Add collagen and quickly blend, then add the mixture to the chopped cashews and stir to combine. Taste at this point; you can add lemon zest or more lemon juice if you prefer!

4: Line a loaf pan with parchment paper. Pour mixture into the pan, and spread smooth in the middle. Keep the mixture in a small enough portion of the pan so that the bars are not too thin.

5: Set in freezer for 1-2 hours, until hard enough to slice. Slice into 4 large bars or 8 smaller bars. Store in freezer.
