Chocolate Fudge Oat Bars
Chocolate Fudge Oat Bars - a 2 ingredient fudge centre sandwiched between 2 oaty layers. They're no-bake, vegan & gluten-free!
Ingredients
- 155g rolled oats*
- 110g ground oats/oat flour**
- 1/2 tsp cardamom*
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 120ml coconut oil melted
- 2 tbsp maple syrup
- 200g dark chocolate
- 120ml tahini***
Instructions
- Mix the oats, oat flour, salt and cardamom in a bowl, then pour in the coconut oil and maple syrup
- * You can dry toast the oats first and leave them to cool completely before adding the rest of the ingredients. Since we’re not baking them, toasting the oats will make them easier to digest and make them less chewy. It also brings out a lovely rich and nutty flavour in the oats.
- Press 3/4 of the mixture into a 7” square tin lined with parchment paper (or you can use an 8” round tin).
- Place in the freezer for 15 minutes. In the meantime prepare the chocolate filling.
- Break up the chocolate into a heatproof dish and melt in the microwave. Pour in the tahini and mix until you have smooth mixture.
- Pour over the oat base, then sprinkle over the remaining 1/4 of the oat mixture
- Return to the freezer for 30-60 minutes.
Notes
* You can use gluten-free oats if necessary.
** Plain oats blended into a flour in the food processor.
*** Nut butters will also work.
