2 scoops (1/2 cup) natural vanilla protein powder (gluten free if needed - optional - if you do not want to use protein powder, use an additional ½ cup rolled oats)
¼ cup ground flaxseed
¼ cup coconut palm sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 egg, beaten
3 tablespoons unsulphured molasses
1½ cups unsweetened almond milk (or other milk of choice)
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
¼ cup raisins
¼ cup chopped dates
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
In a large bowl combine the dry ingredients, except for the coconut palm sugar.
In another bowl, whisk the egg and add in the wet ingredients as well as the coconut palm sugar.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry and stir to combine. Fold in the raisins and the dates.
Line an 8x8 or 9x5 inch pan with parchment paper.
