  • 45g desiccated coconut
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 80g coconut milk
  • 75g dates
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract

1

Preheat the oven to 180/160C fan and line an 8×8 inch baking tray with parchment paper.

Add the porridge oats, oat flour, desiccated coconut, baking powder and salt into a large bowl and mix to combine.

3

Place the coconut milk, pitted dates and vanilla extract into a food processor and blend into a silky puree.

4

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix with a spoon until combined – the mixture should be slightly sticky and crumbly.

5

Pour ⅔ of the batter into the lined baking tray and spread evenly with the back of a spoon.

6

Break the leftover batter into smaller pieces to create a crumb topping. Sprinkle the crumbled batter over the jam layer without pressing down.
