Ingredients
- dough: 1/3 cup oat flour 1 cup almond flour 1/2 cup cocoa powder 1/3 cup maple syrup 1/3 cup runny almond butter 1 tsp vanilla extract dairy-free milk, as needed (i needed 1 tbsp) filling: 1/2 cup pistachio butter 6-8 soft medjool dates, pitted 1/2 tsp vanilla extract 1/4 tsp cardamom (optional, for a middle eastern touch) 1 tbsp melted coconut oil (helps keep the texture firm) 2 tbsp dairy-free milk (add as needed) pinch of sea salt
Instructions
- make the dough: in a food processor, combine oat flour, almond flour, cocoa powder, almond butter, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. blend until a thick dough forms. if too dry, add dairy-free milk, 1 tbsp at a time. if too thin, add more oat or almond flour.
- roll out the dough: place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper. roll it out into a large rectangle.
- make the filling: in a food processor, blend pistachio butter, dates, vanilla extract, cardamom (if using), coconut oil, and a pinch of salt. blend until smooth and spreadable but thick enough to hold its shape and add the dairy-free milk.
- assemble the rolls: spread the pistachio date filling evenly over the dough. carefully roll the dough into a log using the parchment paper to help guide it.
- chill: place the log in the freezer for 45 minutes until firm. slice and serve: once firm, remove from the freezer and slice into rolls. let them thaw for a few minutes before eating. store: keep in the freezer in an airtight container. thaw before enjoying!
