they provide a boost of fiber, antioxidants, and natural sweetness. Plus, they're easy to make, requiring just one bowl and minimal prep time.
– 1 1/2 cups rolled oats: Provides a chewy texture and is a great source of fiber. – 1/2 cup almond flour: Adds a nutty flavor and makes the bars soft and tender while keeping them gluten-free. – 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce: Acts as a natural sweetener and keeps the bars moist without adding extra fat
– 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup: Adds natural sweetness and a bit of stickiness to hold the bars together. – 1/4 cup melted coconut oil: Adds healthy fats and helps bind the ingredients. – 1 large egg: Acts as a binding agent to hold the bars together (can be replaced with a flax egg for a vegan version).
Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8x8-inch baking dish with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, almond flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Stir well to combine all the dry ingredients.
