Ingredients

  • ¼ cup rolled oats gluten free
  • 8 to 12 Medjool dates depending on the size

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat the oven to 360F or 180C. Line a baking/oven tray with parchment paper.
  2. Mix the oats with the sugar and maple syrup. Spread out on the parchment paper.
  3. Put in the oven for 10 minutes, then hussle a bit and put back for 5. Let cool completely.
  4. Mix the dates with the oatmeal and carob. Add just a bit of water if needed. I sometimes use an immersion blender and sometimes a small kitchen aid. Either way, it will get sticky.
  5. dd to a bowl and mix in the crispy oats with a fork.
  6. Make 8 balls out of the dough.
  7. Roll the ball in the carob.
  8. Let them firm up in the fridge for at least 3 to 4 hours.
