Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 200°C. Lightly spray a 25 cm x 35 cm rectangular slice tin with oil. Line base and sides with baking paper, extending paper 4 cm above edges.
  2. Whisk yoghurt, sugar and eggs in a large bowl until combined. Stir in dates. Combine flour, wheat germ and bicarbonate of soda in a bowl. Stir flour mixture into egg mixture until combined. Add oats, linseeds and coconut, and mix well.

Notes

TIP: Twist this recipe and make an apricot and almond bar instead. Replace the dates with 120g chopped dried apricots and the coconut with 50g chopped almonds. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
