Ingredients
- 200g oats, divided
- 125g coconut
- 75g ground flaxseed
- 3 bananas, broken into chunks
- 10 dates, pitted
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- ½ tsp baking soda
- 125g fresh raspberries, divided
Method
- 1. Pre-heat oven to 180°C / 160°C fan and line a square 20cm (8inch) tin with parchment paper.
- 2. Place 100g of the oats into your food processor along with the coconut, flaxseed, banana, dates, vanilla and baking soda.
- 3. Blitz until the mixture is mostly smooth. Tip: Scrape the bowl down halfway through processing to make sure everything is mixed in.
- 4. Once it is a thick and sticky dough-like consistency, use a strong spoon to fold in the remaining oats (keep back a handful for later) and ¾ of the raspberries.
- 5. Transfer to the prepared baking tin, spread the mixture evenly in the tin with a spatula or back of a large spoon.
- 6. Sprinkle the reserved oats on top and then cut or tear the remaining raspberries in halves and gently press them into the top.
- 7. Bake for 25 minutes, then leave to cool in the tin on a wire rack for about 10 minutes before removing from the tin and leaving to cool completely.
- 8. Cut into bars and enjoy.
- 9. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week, or place bars in freezer bags and freeze for up to 3 months.
