Method
Preheat the oven to 375°F and grease an 8x8-inch baking pan.
In a blender, combine 1/3 cup of the dates and 1/2 cup water; blend until very smooth.
Add egg and blend just until combined. In a medium bowl, combine oats, flour, cinnamon, baking powder and salt and whisk until combined.
Add date-and-water mixture and remaining 1/3 cup chopped dates; stir until moistened.
Scrape into the prepared pan, level the top with a spatula, and bake until firm and lightly browned around the edges, about 17 minutes.
Cool in the pan and cut into 10 bars.
Bars keep in an airtight container for about a week.
They can also be individually wrapped and frozen until ready to eat; allow about 2 hours for them to thaw.
