Ingredient label check

Always check your products’ labels and cross-contact information. Swapping an ingredient does not guarantee an allergen-free recipe.

A few simple steps

Let’s make something good.

Follow the updated ingredient weights and your swap notes above. The method keeps the original ingredient names; chilling and cooking times are guidance.

02
Blend dates, water, and vanilla into a thick, smooth date paste.
03
Spread the date paste evenly over the oat base.
04
Crumble the remaining oat mixture over the top, pressing lightly to adhere.
