Ingredients
- ½ cups Dates
- 1 cup Oats (Quick Or Old-fashioned)
- 1 whole Apple, Cored
- ½ cups Pecans
- 1 Tablespoon Flax Meal
- 1 Tablespoon Maple Syrup
- 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
Preparation
Preheat oven to 350ºF. Line a 9×9 inch baking dish with parchment paper, leaving an overhang, and set aside. Place the dates in a small bowl, pour hot water over top, and let them soak for 10 minutes while you get out your ingredients.
Drain the dates and add them to the bowl of a food processor. Add the rest of the ingredients and process until everything is finely chopped and mixed well. Press the mixture into the prepared baking dish and bake for 20–25 minutes until it is set. Allow to cool then lift the bars out of the dish with the parchment overhang. Slice into bars.
Bars keep well in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week, or can be frozen for up to 3 months.
