Description

Ingredients

• ¾ cup gluten-free rolled oats
• ¼ cup gluten-free oat flour
• ⅓ cup unsweetened coconut flakes
• ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
• ¼ teaspoon baking powder
• ¼ teaspoon baking soda
• ¼ teaspoon salt
• 2 flax eggs (2 tablespoons ground flax + 6 tablespoons water, whisked together, set for 5 mins)
• 2 tablespoons melted coconut oil
• ¼ cup + 2 tablespoons natural, unsalted peanut butter*
• ¼ cup coconut sugar
• ½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• ⅓ cup vegan chocolate chips
• ⅓ cup walnuts, chopped (or add-ins of your choice)

Directions

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Line an 8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper or greased foil. Set aside.
• In a large bowl, whisk together all of the dry ingredients: oats, flour, coconut, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together all of the wet ingredients: flax eggs, coconut oil, peanut butter, coconut sugar and vanilla. Whisk until smooth.
• Pour the wet mixture over the dry mixture. Use a rubber spatula or wooden spoon to fold the ingredients together until well combined. Fold in chocolate chips and walnuts.
• Pour dough into the prepared baking pan. Using a rubber spatula, spread into an even and tightly packed layer.
• Bake for 20-30 minutes. Mine took 25 minutes. You’ll know it’s done when the top is a rich golden brown.
• Place on a cooling rack for 1 hour, or until completely cool. Lift breakfast bars out of the baking pan. Slice into 16 bars. Enjoy! Storing notes below.
