I have a huge sweet tooth, and as such have recently restricted myself to no junk food! But I have been craving dessert like crazy! So I developed this recipe for an extremely healthy, nutritious and filling cookie that will satisfy my sweet tooth.

Here’s what’s in it:

1 cup dates, soaked

2 cups oats

1 tsp cinnamon

2 tsp vanilla

1/2 cup water

Soak the dates in boiling water until soft. Once softened, add the oats to the dates along with the remaining ingredients. Put in  a blender or food processor and pulse two or three times to bring the mix to a sticky consistency.

Roll into balls, flatten with a spoon, and place in a 200 degree oven for 12 mins or until brown.

Enjoy not feeling guilty!
