Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Bring water, apricots, and dates to a boil and let simmer for 5 minutes to soften. Mix oatmeal, whole wheat flour, coconut sugar, salt, and cinnamon in a bowl. Puree apricots, dates, and 2-3 tablespoons of the water they were boiled in until paste-like. In another bowl combine coconut oil, apricot purée, and vanilla and mix to combine. Fold in wet ingredients into dry and toss until coated. Fold in chocolate chips. Press firmly into a parchment lined 9x12 pan and bake for 20-30 minutes. Let cool thoroughly and then break up into chunks.
