METHOD
Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C, or gas mark 4). Lightly grease an 8-inch square baking dish.
5 minutes with a hand or stand mixer on medium speed, combine the sugar and peanut butter. Mix in the vanilla extract. On medium speed, combine the flours, baking soda, and baking powder. Mix in the oats for a few seconds. This will be difficult. Mix in the milk on medium until just combined.
Fold in the peanuts and dates until everything is well combined.
You can lightly press the dough into the prepared dish with your hands. Bake for 15–20 minutes, or until the top is lightly golden brown.
Allow to cool on a wire rack. Refrigerate after cutting into sixteen squares.
