Instructions

- Pour dates and water into blender or food processor. Pulse until smooth (about 1 minute).
- Add Avocado, vanilla extract, cinnamon, sea salt and maple syrup into the blender. Continue to blend until smooth (another minute).
- Use a spatula to empty batter into a large bowl.
- Add oats, raisins and walnuts into the bowl, mix.
- Line a standard loaf pan (8-1/2 x 4-1/2 x 2-1/2 inches) with parchment paper. Pour batter into pan and pat down with spatula. Shake the pan, if needed, to ensure batter is evenly distributed.
