Pecan Almond Date Bars

1. Preheat the oven to 350 F and spray an 8X8 pan with nonstick spray or coconut oil. You could also line the bottom of the pan with parchment paper if you want. Set aside.
2. In a medium-sized bowl, combine the the flours, salt and baking soda, and mix. Set aside.
3. In a large bowl, mix together the eggs, applesauce, honey and vanilla. Slowly add the dry mixture into the wet until all incorporated. Fold in the chopped nuts and dates.
4. Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and bake for 22-30 minutes (mine took 25 minutes).
5. Remove from oven. Cool completely before cutting up pieces to serve. You could even dust the pieces with powdered sugar if you wanted to.

Notes:
– Use gluten-free oats or sub in more almond flour if you want it GF or just use regular oats.
– I used 1/4 cup natural applesauce instead of vegetable oil. Use vegetable oil if you prefer. Or you could even try heated coconut oil.
