Notes

NUTRITION DISCLAIMER
If the dates are dry, soak them in water for approximately 15 minutes, or until they plump up and soften. This will help them break down in the blender and bind the ingredients.
If you need this recipe to be gluten-free, we suggest using Bob’s Red Mill Gluten-Free Rolled Oats.
If you don’t have a food processor, you can mince the dates and crush the nuts and mix the ingredients in a large bowl.
Store covered in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
Freeze in a freezer safe container for up to 2 months.
