12dates, pitted and soaked in hot water for 10 minutes
2tablespoonsmaple syrup or date paste
2teaspoonscinnamon
For the Drizzle:
2tablespoonsdairy-free cream cheese
1tablespoonmaple syrup
Instructions
In a bowl, stir almond butter, maple syrup, and vanilla until smooth. Add oat flour, protein powder, and salt. Mix until a dough forms.
Make the filling by adding the softened dates, maple syrup, and cinnamon to a small blender and blending until smooth, scraping down the sides as needed. (You can also do this with an immersion blender.)
Roll the dough into a rectangle between two sheets of parchment. Spread evenly with the filling.
Roll up tightly into a log. Chill in the freezer for 30 minutes until firm, then slice into bite-sized rolls.
In a small bowl, whisk the drizzle ingredients until smooth. Drizzle over bites, and enjoy!
Notes
Filling Substitutions: If you're not a fan of dates, you could just use the 2 tablespoons of maple syrup mixed in with the cinnamon. You won't get as thick of a cinnamony middle layer, but they will still be delicious! Storage:These will last in the fridge for up to one week in a sealed container.
