Ingredients
- 1 cup (150 g) self-raising flour
- 140 g medjool dates, pitted and coarsely chopped

- 1⁄2 cup (110 g) crystallised ginger, coarsely chopped

2. Combine flour, dates, coconut, sugar and ginger in a large bowl. Stir in egg and oil spread until combined. Press mixture evenly into prepared tin. Bake for 25 minutes or until a skewer inserted in the centre comes out clean. Cool in tin. Cut into 15 squares.
