Place 30 dates in a container and cover with water. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
Lightly grease an 8x8 square pan with oil or vegan butter. Set aside.
Place the walnuts, oats, coconut oil or vegan butter and 15 unsoaked dates in a food processor. Process until finely crumbled.
Spoon mixture into the prepared pan, setting aside 1-1/2 cups. Press mixture into pan firmly making sure it is even.
Drain your soaked dates well. Place them all in a food processor. Blend until a smooth paste.
Spoon date mixture evenly over the crumble mixture.
Sprinkle the remaining crumble on top. Spread out evenly and pack down firmly.
Refrigerate for at least 1 hour until firm. Cut carefully into 16 squares and serve. Store leftovers in the fridge or freeze for later.

The squares will be firm after one hour but taste and hold together better the next day. They really firm up the longer they are refrigerated.
