Bah. I was hoping you would tell me about a brand I could buy in the stores,

or through mail order. But that would be too easy, wouldn't it? :P Marilyn

>>>Are there any date pieces available that are GF? Marilyn

 

So far the only ones I've found are the ones I make myself. Kitchen snips

and pitted dates are the recipe! LOL!

Marilyn,

 

When I make these type of bars I cheat. I take my whole dates and take the

pits out of them. Then I soak them in boiling water (just to cover). After they

are soft I blend it up in the blender.

 

Very quick and still tastes great!

Tracy--Bless you for sharing that short cut about the dates! Whew! I couldn't

see me with my trusty scissors, slaving in the kitchen over all those teeny

tiny dates! THANKS!!! Marilyn

I'm really glad you posted this recipe, AJ. I bought tins of pineapple

last year and then couldn't recall what I had intended to make with

them. They are about to go out of date, so your post was very timely!

Pineapple Date Bars

Source: Five Loaves Cookbook - adapted

 

1 1/2 cups flour of choice

1/2 cup Brazil nut butter

3/4 tsp. salt

2 cups oats (gf)

1/2 cup unsweetened, flaked coconut

1/2 cup water and 1/2 cup honey, mixed together

1 cup pineapple chunks and juice or crushed pineapple

1 cup date pieces

1 tsp. vanilla

1 cup raisins

1 cup diced dried pineapple

 

Place flour and salt in a mixing bowl and add the Brazil nut butter.

Work evenly together with your hands, then stir in salt, oats, and

coconut. Then add honey and water mixture to the dry mix and stir

together.

 

Hint: The mix should be moist with all the dry mix evenly coated, but

not too wet and gummy.

 

Place half the mixture on the bottom of a 9 x 13 inch pan that has

been oiled or sprayed; press with fingers like pie crust. Bake 10

minutes at 350 degrees.

 

Meanwhile, blend dates and canned pineapple. Spread over baked crust.

 

Sprinkle evenly with raisins and dried pineapple.

 

Sprinkle remaining crust mixture evenly over the top. Press gently

into pineapple-date filling with fingers.

 

Bake 20 - 30 minutes at 350 degrees until lightly browned. Remove and

cook before cutting in squares.

 

Note: A single recipe fits a 9 x 13 inch pan. If you are making

cookies for a crowd, a double recipe fits on a cookie sheet and makes

24 - 30 bars.
