I LOVE fig newtons. Figgy-Mahn Rollz are a much healthier alternative with a new pimped out rasta / reggae swag. They are the perfect sweet-tooth fix, or a great energy bite for a snack or workout. Figs are high in calcium and dates with all that potassium, whole grain oats, fabulous fiber in here, phytochemicals, antioxidants and anti-inflammatory flaxy polyunsaturated essential fatty acids. What more could you ask for? ❤
Figgy-Mahn Rollz
Serves 12
Crust
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup moist pitted dates
- 1 Tbsp fresh lime juice
- 1/2 tsp coconut oil (to grease baking sheet)
If using a food processor S blade:
- Blend the oats alone until a rough flour
- Add in the dates and the lime and process until it forms a smooth uniform dough
If using a high speed blender like ninja or vitamix:
- Blend the oats alone until a rough flour and pour into a separate bowl
- Blend the dates and the lime until smooth
- Using a fork or mashed potato masher, combine the date paste with the oat flour until smooth and uniform
To assemble:
- Spread the coconut oil over the baking sheet to grease it
- Spread the dough onto the baking sheet. It doesn’t have to cover the whole sheet. Trim edges so they are straight and try to make it an even thickness
Filling
- 1 cup moist dried figs, with the hard things on top taken off
- 1/4 cup ground flax
- 1 Tbsp maple syrup
Blend until smooth using high speed blender or food processor
To Assemble
Spread the fig paste over the date-oat crust
Roll baby roll!
Press the edge down to seal it shut smoothly
Slice into 12 rollz to share ❤
