Ingredients
Base Oat Layer:
- 1 cup old fashioned oats
- 1/4 cup almond flour
- 1 cup natural peanut butter
- 1/2 cup maple syrup (or honey)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 tsp salt
Caramel Layer:
- 1 cup medjool dates, packed + pitted
- 4 tbs milk of choice
- 1/3 cup roasted peanuts
Chocolate Topping:
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
- 1 tbs peanut butter
- flaky salt
Instructions
Cups:
- In a medium bowl, mix together the oats, almond flour, peanut butter, syrup, vanilla and salt. Transfer to a muffin tray lined with liners, evenly amongst 12 slots. Flatten out as best as possible. Freeze the cups for at least 2 hours.
Date Caramel:
- In a mini food processor or blender, add in dates and milk and pulse until smooth and incorporated. Divide this mixture evenly among the 12 oat cups.
- To each cup, add about 5 peanuts on top of the caramel layer and gently press down. Place back in the freezer for 1 hour.
Chocolate Topping:
- In a small pot over low heat, melt the chocolate chips and peanut butter, stirring constantly until smooth and melted. Remove the tray from the freezer and drop about 1-2 tbs of chocolate on the tops of each and smooth it out flat. Sprinkle with the flaky slat and freeze for another hour.
Notes
- Make sure you use dairy free milk and chocolate chips to keep these vegan.
- You can use almond butter or sunflower seed butter instead of peanut butter.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in your freezer. Take out an allow to 'thaw' for 5 minutes prior to serving.
