Ingredients
-
1.5 cups
large flake oats
-
1 cup
date paste
-
1/4 cup
creamy peanut butter
-
1/4 cup
honey
-
1/4 cup
maple syrup
-
1/2 cup
almonds
-
1/2 cup
dried figs, chopped
-
1/4 cup
walnuts
-
1 pinch
salt
Directions
-
Preheat the oven at 350 degrees F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Spread the oats, almonds and walnuts on the baking sheet and toast in the oven for 8-10 minutes until golden and nicely toasted.
-
Transfer the oats, almonds and walnuts to a large mixing bowl. Add the date paste and chopped dried figs to the bowl along with a pinch of salt.
-
In a saucepan, combine honey, peanut butter and maple syrup and place over low heat. Stir together just until melted and then pour over the oats and dates.
-
Mix everything thoroughly and then transfer to a parchment lined baking pan (ideally 8x8). Press down with the back of a measuring cup or a glass to flatten the surface.
-
Refrigerate for half an hour until the bars are firm. Remove from the baking pan and cut into even sized squares or 10 bars.
