Ingredients

• 2 cups rolled oats
• 1 cup shredded coconut
• 6 oz. chopped pitted dried dates
• 1 cup ricotta cheese
• 1/3 cup golden syrup
• 3 eggs
• 1/4 cup cold-pressed oil of your choice

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Combine oats, coconut, and dates in a large bowl.
In a separate bowl, beat ricotta cheese, golden syrup, eggs, and mashed banana. Add to dry ingredients and stir well until mixture holds together. If it is crumbly add a little water and stir well.
Drop 1 tablespoonful of mixture onto cookie sheet. Use a fork to flatten mixture slightly. Bake for 20 minutes or until cooked through. Remove from oven and allow to cool for 10 minutes.
