Yield 15 bars

Number Of Ingredients 10

3/4 cup Oat flour
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 cup pecans, chopped
1/3 cup dates pitted, chopped
1/3 cup dried apricots, chopped
3 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
3/4 tsp baking soda
3/4 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 F and butter a 10-inch by 10-inch pan. Toss the dates and apricots with 1 tablespoon of flour. Add the nuts and set aside. Place the eggs in a mixing bowl and whip them with an electric mixer until frothy. Gradually add the brown sugar and continue whipping until the mixture is thick, about 5 minutes. Combine the flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt in a separate bowl and fold it into the egg mixture. Fold in the fruit and nut mixture. Spread the batter into the prepared pan and bake until golden brown and springy to the touch, about 20 minutes. Cut into bars and store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
