How to Prepare Chocolate Caramel Peanut Butter Bars [Vegan, Gluten-Free]

In a food processor add the whole rolled oats and process into a flour consistency.
Add all the base ingredients into a bowl and mix, set aside.
Add the caramel ingredients into a food processor (set the chopped peanuts aside!) and blend until smooth.
Line a small dish with parchment paper and add the base layer, then the caramel layer and top with chopped peanut and chocolate drizzle or layer. Freeze overnight at least 6 hours.

Notes

The pitted medjool dates need to be soft and gooey, if they aren’t soft and gooey soak them in hot water for 30 minutes first.
