Ingredients

    I cup pitted chopped dates
    1/3 cup granulated sugar
    1 1/2 cups water

    2 cups regular rolled oats
    2 cups white flour
    1 cup packed brown sugar
    2 sticks unsalted butter melted

Directions

Place first three ingredients in a saucepan and simmer for 20 minutes until dates have formed a thick puree. Leave to cool completely

Place remaining ingredients in a large mixing bowl and mix well to form a crumbly mixture

Preheat oven to 350 F and line a 9X13 inch baking tray with foil and spray with cooking spray.

Press half to 3/4 of the oat mixture onto the tray, spread over date mixture, and then sprinkle over the remaining oat mixture.

Bake in oven for 30 - 40 mins until golden brown and the date mixture appears set.

Remove from oven and cool completely on a cooling rack (use foil to lift out of baking tray) about 2 hrs

Once cooled then cut into 36 equal size pieces and enjoy!
