Background

These fig and date oat bars are vegan, sugar-free and dairy-free. They can easily be gluten-free too, if appropriate oats are used. So these bars are really healthy treats - particularly for autumnal breakfasts or afternoon snacks.

Ingredients

3 ripe bananas
1 tsp cinnamon (optional)
4 figs
½ cup chopped dates
Small handful of raisins or other dried fruits
1 Tbsp vegetable oil
2 cups prolled oats
½ cup mixed seeds

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 180°C and line a baking tin with parchment paper.
Using a fork, mash the bananas until you get a purée. Mix in the cinnamon, if used.
Finely chop the figs and add to the bananas together with the dates. Add the raisins and seeds too, then mix in the oil.
Fold in the oats and mix until you get a thick, gooey batter. Add more oats, if needed. (The batter should be thick, but not dough-like.)
Transfer the mixture to the prepared tin, spreading it out evenly.
Bake in the middle of the oven for 20-25 minutes until golden brown.
Let it cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer it to a wire-rack.
When cooled, cut them into bars or squares and enjoy!
