Instructions

Step 1: Prep

Preheat oven to 375°F. Coat an 8-inch square pan with cooking spray.

Step 2: Soften

Soak dates in hot water for 20 minutes. Drain and pulse in a food processor, slowly adding 7 tbsp hot water to form a smooth paste.

Add coconut milk, banana, egg, and extracts to the date paste; process until smooth.

Mix the dry ingredients in a large bowl. Stir in the date-banana mixture, then fold in the remaining 1 cup of blueberries.

Spread half the oat mixture in the pan, layer the blueberry sauce over it, and top with the remaining oats. Bake for 30–35 minutes until set. Let cool for 10 minutes.
