Ingredients
200g Whitworths Stoned Soft Sayer Dates
75g Whitworths Flaked Almonds
75g no-added-sugar crunchy peanut butter
½ tsp cinnamon
25g chia seeds
150g porridge oats
Method
1
Put the dates into a bowl and cover with boiling water. Leave to sit for 5 mins, or until softened.
2
Pulse the flaked almonds in a food processor until roughly chopped. Drain the dates and add to the food processor along with the peanut butter and cinnamon. Pulse until sticky and combined, adding a splash of water if needed.
3
Tip in the chia seeds and porridge oats, pulsing a few times until coated with the date mixture.
4
Scoop the mixture into a lined, 21cm-square baking tray. Press down gently with the back of a spoon to smooth.
5
Cover and chill in the fridge for at least 30 mins or overnight.
6
Cut into 12 bars to serve. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.
