Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
- 3 tablespoons of filtered water
- 3 1/4 cups rolled oats (certified as gluten-free)
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon coarse sea salt
- 1 1/2 cup or (15 ounce) can cooked white beans, rinsed and drained
- 1/4 cup coconut oil melted
- 1/4 cup pure maple syrup or raw honey
- Zest of an orange
- 1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup dried apricots or other dried fruit you have on hand, roughly chopped
- 1/4 cup pumpkin seeds lightly toasted
- 1 cup chopped 70% chocolate chopped (I used Valhrona brand) - Optional -
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 Degrees. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper and set it aside.
- Mix chia seeds and water in a small bowl and let it sit on the counter for 10-15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, process 1 1/2 cups of the rolled oats in a food processor until it turns into flour. Transfer it to a large mixing bowl. Stir in the rest of the rolled oats, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Set aside.
- Place the white beans and coconut oil into the bowl of the food processor and process until creamy. Add in the chia seeds (with water), maple syrup, orange zest, applesauce, and vanilla extract. Pulse until everything is combined and it is smooth mixture.
- Pour the white bean mixture over the rolled oats mixture. Add in the apricots, pumpkin seeds, and chocolate. Stir to combine. At this point, you may have to use your hands.
- Shape the dough into 10 equal balls and then flatten them into patty shape. Place them on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 15-18 minutes, flipping the sheet halfway through the baking process.
- Let them cool completely before serving. They can be kept in an airtight container in room temperature up to a week.
