Ingredients 

1x2x3x

For the date caramel

• 100 g Medjool dates
• 50 ml plant-based drink I use rice drink
• 2 teaspoon peanut butter* preferably 100% peanuts.
• 1 pinch of vanilla bean powder
• 1 pinch of salt

For the biscuits

• 70 g gluten free oats
• 50 g rice flour
• 15 g corn starch
• ½ pack (9 g) baking powder
• 100 g cashew butter
• 50 g cane sugar
• 1 egg
• 4 ½ tablespoon plant-based drink I use rice drink

Instructions

For the date caramel

• Using a hand blender (or a powerful food processor**) mix the dates with the rice drink until a homogeneous paste forms.
• Add the peanut butter, vanilla and salt and stir with a spoon (or blend again).

For the biscuits

• Preheat the oven to 180°C and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Grind the oats  in a small blender or food processor.
• In a bowl, combine the ground oats with the rice flour, the cornstarch and the baking powder.
• In a larger bowl, combine the cashew butter, the cane sugar, the egg and the plant-based drink.
• Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients.
• Using a piping bag (or 2 teaspoons), gently form small disks on the baking sheet. Bake for 15 minutes at 180°C. Let cool after baking.
• Using a new, clean piping bag (or a teaspoon), poach caramel on half the biscuits and top with another biscuit.

Notes

*You can also use almond butter.

**I find it easier to use a hand blender than a food processor. It prevents the dates from sticking to the container.

You can keep the biscuits for a few days in an airtight container.
