Zubereitung von Delightful Date Squares
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking pan.
- In a small saucepan, bring 1/2 cup water to a boil. Reduce heat to medium, add 1 cup pitted Medjool dates and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Simmer until dates are very soft and easily mashed (about 5-7 minutes).
- Remove from heat and let cool slightly. Mash dates with a fork or potato masher until smooth.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups rolled oats, 1 cup flour, 3/4 cup sugar, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, and 1 teaspoon cinnamon.
- Add 1/2 cup softened vegan margarine and 1/4 cup vegetable oil. Mix until well combined.
- If the mixture is too dry, add 2-4 tablespoons of water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until desired consistency is reached.
- Press half of the oat mixture into the bottom of the prepared 9x13 inch pan.
- Spread the cooled date mixture evenly over the oat crust.
- Sprinkle the remaining oat mixture over the date layer.
- Bake for 25-40 minutes, or until the top is lightly golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares. The crust will firm up as it cools.
