Instructions

1

Step 1

Start by heating your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper that’s been lightly greased. Soak the dates in hot water for about 6 to 10 minutes until they’re nice and soft, then drain them well.

Step 2

Next, toss the dates along with the almond pulp, oats, almond milk, almond flour, coconut flour, coconut oil, applesauce, vanilla, cacao nibs, cinnamon, salt, and nutmeg into a food processor. Blend everything until it comes together into a dough-like texture. If it feels too dry, add a little water to help it along.

Step 3

Scoop out about a tablespoon of dough at a time and roll it between your hands. Pinch the sides to shape it into a square, then place it on the baking sheet. Give each piece a gentle press with your fingers or a fork to flatten it slightly. Keep going until all the dough is used.

Step 4

Pop the tray into the oven and bake for around 20 minutes, or until the treats turn a nice golden brown. Let them cool completely once they’re out of the oven.

Step 5

While they’re cooling, melt the dark chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat it in short 15-second bursts, stirring in between, until it’s smooth and melted—this usually takes about 1 to 2 minutes. Finally, drizzle the melted chocolate over the treats and enjoy!
