Fig and Dates slice -Eggless and whole meal



Back in my home-town,  we usually get dates which are ultra dried , really hard and are super sweet and push you into a Sugar comma!
You have to chew those forever and you would get a jaw ache after eating few of those!
Later once I got the real taste of the fresh ripe dates and the semi dried ones, there was no looking back. I became a buff.I always have a box of dried dates in my pantry, I don’t mean the rubbery ones but the soft, juicy ones!

As I am on a healthy wholesome baking spree, here is a eggless, whole meal, nutritious  snack 


Fig and date slice -Eggless and whole meal

 Ingredients
100 gms Whole meal flour
100 gms Instant Oats
60 gms Brown sugar
75 gms butter melted
75 gms Milk
Juice of half Orange
 For the filling
150 gms Figs/Dates
50 ml water
1 tspn Sugar
Flavoring- I used some ginger syrup
Juice of half Orange

Meanwhile mix together the dry ingredients- Whole wheat flour, Oats, brown sugar and mix well
Add the melted butter and milk , orange juice and mix well.
Spread half of the mix in a square pan and spread it evenly using a spatula
