METHOD

• IF USING DRIED DATES, COVER WITH THE BOILING WATER AND SOAK FOR 15MINS

• DRAIN DATES AND PLACE INTO YOUR PROCESSOR BOWL, ALONG WITH ALL WET INGREDIENTS AND PROCESS UNTIL SMOOTH

• ADD DRY INGREDIENTS ONE AT A TIME UNTIL EVERYTHING MIXED THROUGH EVENLY, CASHEWS LAST SO THAT THEY STAY IN BIG CHUNKS FOR TEXTURE

• POUR MIXTURE INTO PAN/TIN (I USED A SILICONE LOAF PAN) AND SPREAD OUT EVENLY.  COVER WITH CLING WRAP AND POP INTO THE FREEZER FOR AN HOUR

• REMOVE AND SLICE INTO DESIRED SHAPES THEN TOSS IN COCONUT

• STORE IN AN AIRTIGHT CONTAINER IN THE FRIDGE/FREEZER

* YOU CAN USE OATS IF YOU DO NOT HAVE LUPIN FLAKES, PULSE IN THE PROCESSOR A FEW TIMES THOUGH AS LUPIN FLAKES ARE QUITE A LOT SMALLER THAN OATS

* I USED HALF TOASTED COCONUT IN MY MIXTURE AS I THINK IT ADDS MORE OF A COCONUT TASTE

* YOU COULD ROLL INTO BALLS INSTEAD OF MAKING INTO BARS
