Garden of Eydie is always imagining a world filled with the most delicious, fun, and health promoting meals and snacks. Boy oh boy do these no-bake snacks have it all. I call them Dapples because they are made with dates, oats &  apples and it’s a name kids will love and adore – and ask for more and more!  

Dates are amazing for the digestive system, great for a better night’s sleep, and ideal for diabetes as they deliver vital glucose to the liver.  They are  high in potassium to refuel the brain and muscles for super active people!  Apples are anti-inflammatory,  a true brain food, colon cleanser, and so much more.  Oats are gluten free and super satisfying!

Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups gluten free rolled oats (I used these) 
  • 10 Medjool dates, pitted, and roughly chopped 
  • 2 tablespoons coconut milk, or other plant based milk of your choice 
  • 1-½ tablespoons maple syrup
  • 2 small red apples

Directions

  1. Place the rolled oats, dates, coconut milk and maple syrup in the bowl of a food processor, and blend until the dough comes together.  Remove the dough and form into 12 balls of equal size. Flatten the dough pieces to about 1½ to 2-inches in diameter, about ¼-inch thick.
  2. Slice the apples into ¼-inch thick round slices, making 6 total slices. Using a paring knife, slice around the seeds to remove, or use a small  ½-inch cookie cutter to press down around the seeds to remove.
  3. Place one slice of apple on 6 of the flattened dough pieces and add the other flattened dough pieces on top to make dopple sandwiches.
To Serve:

Cut in half, if you wish, and serve on a cute plate that brings lots of joy, like these Corelle celebrations plates.
