Healthy Sweet Potato Bars

These easy sweet potato bars are a healthier version of a favorite fall dessert. A crunchy nut and oat crust is the perfect base for a spiced maple sweet potato filling which is then baked and cooled.

Ingredients:

For The Crust – Walnuts – Old-fashioned oats – Dates – Coconut oil – Salt

Prepare the Crust Layer

Preheat oven to 350℉. Line a 9×9 square baking pan with parchment paper, so that it covers the bottom and hangs over one of the sides.

In the bowl of a food processor, pulse together the walnuts and oats 3-4 times.

Add in the dates, butter or coconut oil and salt and process until the mixture comes together.

Press crust mixture in an even layer on the bottom of the prepared pan. Bake for 10-12 minutes. Remove and let cool while you make the filling.

Make the Sweet Potato Filling

Wipe out the bowl of the food processor and add in all of the filling ingredients.
