These were an experiment and i tried to remember how much of each ingredient i used. Please let me know if you try this and whether it works out for you. They were so yummy!
Ingredients
- About 1 packed cup chopped dates
- 1/2 cup honey
- 1 Tbsp. ground chia seeds
- 1 Tbsp. ground flax seeds
- pinch of salt
- 1 1/2 cups old-fashioned oats (dry, not cooked)
- 1 cup shelled pistachio nuts
- 1 cup dried cranberries
- 1/3 cup white chocolate chips (optional - but so good!)
- 1/3 cup egg whites (or 1 egg and 1 egg white)
- 1 Scoop of protein powder - vanilla or plain is best.
- 1/4 cup of wheat bran
Method
Preheat the oven at 190 degrees Celsius.
Combine
the dates, honey, eggs, chia seeds, flax seeds and salt in a food processor,
and pulse until smooth and combined. You should be able to stir the
mixture. Transfer
the mixture to a large bowl and stir in the oats, pistachios, dried
cranberries, protein powder, wheat bran and white chocolate chips until evenly combined.
Pour into a baking paper lined 20cm by 20cm square tin. Press and spread evenly into the tin. Bake for about 20 mins or until golden brown - keep an eye on it and use your intuition - times will vary for every oven.
Store
covered in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
