Ingredients
  

  • 3 cups rolled oats
  • 3 tablespoons chia seeds
  • 3 tablespoons flax seeds
  • ½ cup sliced almonds
  • ½ cup medjool dates about 6-7
  • ½ cup natural peanut butter or almond
  • 6-7 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 5 tablespoons avocado oil
  • ¼ teaspoon salt unless your peanut butter is salted
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. If your dates are hard, soak them in boiling water for 10 minutes.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the oats, seeds, almonds, and salt.
  • In a food processor, combine dates, peanut butter, maple syrup, oil, and vanilla. Process until smooth. Combine with the oats and place on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake for 20 minutes, then let it cool completely to harden. Break it up into pieces and bake for 5 minutes, cool, mix it around, then bake another 5 minutes. Keep repeating this process (I usually do 2-3 times) until you've achieved the texture you want (more means it will get crispier). Keep in mind that it hardens when cooled.
