Directions
Oatmeal and Date Bars,Very moist almost brownie textured bars. The dates are mixed in with the flavourful oatmeal base. Great served warm.,Delicious! I omitted the oil and molasses to cut back the fat and calories even more, and they still turned out great! They were definitely more cake like than brownies, but that was fine with me. Thanks for this healthy recipe!,Wow, these were really good. I made them to the recipe, except I didn’t have skim milk powder so I had to omit it (now I think I will go ahead and buy the skim milk powder just for this). I actually didn’t know what to expect when I made these in terms of consistency and was pleasantly pleased to find they’re kind have a brownie consistency – kind of like a thick kind of chewy cookie. I had never used dates in baking before, and I found they had a nice toffee like flavor and kind of melted into a chewy caramel like consistency. I baked half the batch for the recommended time and the other half for about 10 minutes longer until golden brown on top. Cooking a bit longer kind of softened the flavors a bit (which was good as I found the molasses was somewhat strong), and it also gave them a perfect combination of crunchiness and chewiness which I personally just love. But either way, these were delicious. Thanks!
