Instructions
1
Preheat the oven to 175°C (350°F) and line a 10x10cm square tin with a strip of baking paper overhanging two sides.
2
In a bowl, whisk together the oat flour, all-purpose flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt.
3
In a separate bowl, beat the melted butter with the brown sugar and honey until glossy, then whisk in the egg and vanilla extract.
4
Fold the wet mixture into the dry mixture until just combined, then fold through the chopped dates, diced apricot, cranberries and walnuts.
5
Spread the thick batter evenly into the prepared tin, pressing it into the corners with the back of a spoon.
6
Bake for 20-22 minutes until the top is golden and a skewer inserted in the centre comes out with only moist crumbs.
7
Cool the bars in the tin on a wire rack for at least 15 minutes before lifting out by the paper overhang.
8
Slice into 2 squares once fully cooled to room temperature.
