  • 3 cups Dates
  • 1/2 Lemon juiced
  • 1 tbsp Vanilla
  • 2 tsp Cinnamon

Crust

  • 1 tsp Pink Salt or any regular salt

  • 1 1/3 cup Vegan Butter melted
  • 2 1/ 2 cup Gluten-free Oat Flour

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 F degrees and grease a baking dish. I used a brownie pan.
  • Over the stove pot, bring 1 cup of water to boil. Add in all filling ingredients. And boil down until soft.
  • Once soft, drain some liquid and blend until smooth in a food processor.
  • In a large bowl, combine all filling ingredients until smooth.
  • Scoop crumble into the bottom of the pan. Leave about half for the top of the squares!
  • Pour in filling, smoothen with a spatula.
  • Scoop crumble onto the filling. Make sure all filling is covered.
  • Bake for 32 to 38 minutes.
  • Let cool over night. 
  • Cut into squares and enjoy!
