Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 F and line a baking pan with parchment paper. I used an 8×8 tray.

  3. Place the potatoes, figs and dates into a food processor and run until smooth.
  4. Pour the mixture into a large bowl, and mix well with the remaining ingredients.
  5. Place into your lined dish and bake for 20 mins, or until a fork comes out clean when poked.
