Ingredients
- ¾ cups well-packed pitted dates - make sure they are fresh & very moist
- 1 cup well packed dried apples - not the freeze dried, you want the soft variety
- ½ cup gluten free instant oatmeal - I like Bob's Red Mill
- ½ tsp cinnamon
Instructions
- Put all ingredients into a food processor and blend until coarse paste forms.
- If it doesn't stick and hold in a ball, add a few more dates or a tablespoon of water and blend again. Once it will hold it's shape, roll into quarter-sized bites.
- Another option is to make these into bars… press the mixture into a plastic wrap or parchment lined 5 x 9 pan. Let it chill in your fridge for several hours before removing it from the pan and cutting into squares or bars. You may need to wet your knife to get a clean cut and rinse it off a few times while you cut it into bars.
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature for a softer bite or in the fridge for a firmer texture.
