Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- In a large microwave-safe bowl, cook the dried dates with water for 1 minute and 30 seconds. Then, blend them into a puree using an immersion blender.
- Wash the fresh raspberries or thaw them if frozen.
- Wash and peel the beets, then put them in a blender with the date puree, maple syrup, and applesauce. Blend until smooth.
- In a small bowl, mix the All-bran Flakes cereal, milk, and egg together with a spoon. Let it rest for 5 minutes while preparing the dry ingredients mix.
- In a large bowl, mix the quick-cooking oats, whole wheat flour, white chocolate chips, ground flaxseeds, chia seeds, and salt with a spoon. Add the beet and raspberry puree to the large bowl of dry ingredients.
- Add the other wet ingredients to the large bowl and mix roughly with a spoon or fork. On one or two non-stick baking sheets (or lined with parchment paper), form 18 small patties.
