Ingredients
Base Roll
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1/3 cup oat flour (oats blended to a flour)
- 1/2 cup cocoa powder
- 1/3 cup almond (or any other nut or seed) butter
- 1/4 cup protein or collagen peptides powder
- 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Date Caramel Filling
- 1 cup dates, soaked 30 minutes and drained
- 1/2 cup peanut (or any other nut or seed) butter
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup any milk
Instructions
- In a food processor, combine the oat flour, almond flour, cocoa powder, almond butter, protein powder, honey and vanilla extract.Blend until a thick dough forms. if the dough is too dry, add milk, 1 tablespoon at a time, until you reach the desired consistency. If the dough is too thin, add more almond flour or oat flour, 1 tablespoon at a time, until it thickens up.Lay the dough on a sheet of parchment paper and place another sheet of parchment paper on top of the dough. Roll out the dough into a large rectangle around ¼-½-inches thick. The parchment paper will prevent the dough sticking to the counter or rolling pin.
Date Caramel Filling
- In the same food processor (no need to wash it from the dough), combine the dates, peanut butter, vanilla extract and milk and blend until a smooth mixture forms.Spread the prepared date mixture evenly onto the rolled-out dough. Carefully roll up the dough into a log, place the log in the freezer for 45 minutes until firm.Once firm, remove the roll from the freezer and slice into 10-12 individual slices to serve. Store in the freezer but thaw before eating!
