directions

1. soak dates and raisins for few hours, then mix them with soy cream/milk in food processor, add maple syrup/honey to taste, mix until it is smooth.
2. add peanuts and brazil nuts; either mix them in or leave them just chopped - I like to mix peanuts and leave brazil nuts chopped; they add crunchiness;) Mix in tablesp oil.
3. in another bowl, mix oats and flour, baking powder and soda. I also usually add a tablesp flax seeds (ground).
4. mix the two bowls, put into muffin pan.
5. bake around 30 minutes at 190°C.
6. when they're done, leave them in the pan a little before taking them out-they go out easier.
7. And then enjoy;).
