Like most people I’m always super busy juggling life which can sometimes make preparing healthy meals a challenge. I’m always on the go and always hungry (queen of hanger) I’m a real snacker and I’m always trying different things to make in abundance that I can snack on secure in the knowledge that what I am putting into my mouth both satisfies my appetite and is good for me. Here’s one thing I found ticks all the boxes recently (nb I’m not a fan of measuring as you will see) but this is quick, easy to make and it's good for you too. Sign me up for a lifetime supply.

You will need:
Dates
Chia seeds
Figs
Honey (or alternative if vegan)
Cinnamon
Oats
- Add a small handful of chia seeds so that they congeal
- Chop up 4 soft figs and throw them into the mix (great for extra fibre)
- Once all the ingredients are soft whisk them with a hand blender
- Mix the wet ingredients into two cups of oats
- Drizzle 2 tablespoons of honey and mix all the ingredients together
- Throw in a tablespoon of ground cinnamon
- At this stage, if the mixture is too runny, add a few more oats and if it is too firm add a little boiled water to loosen it
- Line a baking tray with some baking parchment and rub over a minimal amount of oil just to lightly grease it
- With either clean hands or a spoon split the ingredients (should make about 10) and flatten each one on to the baking tray so they look like cookies
Shop baking items below:
- Bake in a pre-heated oven (fan 160 degrees)
- Once they look firm and nicely browned, take them out of the oven and place on a rack or similar to cool
- Once these are cooked, as an extra special treat you can break up some dark chocolate and mix it with a little almond milk or dunk it into my healthy chocolate spread recipe (it's delicious!!!)
- Pop these ingredients into a dish and warm for 30 - 40 seconds in a microwave (or as long as you need to melt it based on your equipment)
Dunk one of the cookies in the melted chocolate (go for 90% dark if you're trying to be healthier) and enjoy. Save the rest until you feel peckish!!
P.S, they also taste REALLY good with my healthy strawberry ice cream and my healthy chocolate spread recipe.
