surfinginvenice: I’m wondering how to make these without so much sugar. I think omitting the maple syrup would work, as the dates provide enough sweetener.
Ellis_Dee_025: These look good for a healthy snack… and very easy to add ingredients for variations! They seem similar to Lärabars which I love!
