Ingredients

Servings

For the Filling:

  • 12 ounces dates finely chopped (about 1¾ cups chopped, pitted
  • ¾ cup water
  • cup maple syrup

For the Crust & Topping:

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup rolled oats old-fashioned
  • ¼ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup butter at room temperature, unsalted
  • cup granulated sugar

Instructions

  1. Combine the dates, water and maple syrup in a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil and cook for 12 minutes, or until most of the liquid is absorbed, stirring frequently (the mixture will look like jam); cool completely.
  2. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Grease a 9x13-inch baking pan; set aside.
  3. In a small bowl, stir together the flour, oats, baking soda and salt.
  4. With an electric mixer, beat the butter and sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Reduce the mixer speed to low and add the dry ingredients, beat only until all dry ingredients have been moistened (the mixture will be crumbly).
  5. Measure out 2 cups of the crust mixture and press evenly into the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Spread the date mixture evenly over top, then sprinkle with the remaining crust mixture.
  6. Bake for 20 minutes, or until golden brown. Cool completely before serving. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
