This is one of my newly adopted recipes. I tossed this together tonight while fixing dinner. Very quick and easy dessert. I used regular apple butter, but no added sugar apple butter could be used as well.

OATMEAL, APPLE AND PEANUT BUTTER BARS



Oatmeal, Apple and Peanut Butter Bars image

I have had this recipe for years and recently started making it after not finding any other oatmeal bars that were a nice combination of good nutrition and good flavor. Not overly sweet and fattening like a cookie, but not so ultra healthy they aren't appealing to kids. You can adapt the recipe, adding any dried fruit you like, use part whole wheat, add some ground flax, my 3 year old likes adding some mini chocolate chips on top. Can't argue with that! Great for breakfast or a afternoon snack.

PEANUT BUTTER AND APPLE OATMEAL BREAKFAST BARS



Peanut Butter and Apple Oatmeal Breakfast Bars image

I rarely cook anything for breakfast. A typical breakfast for me consists of a whole wheat bagel thin with peanut butter and honey, some days I top it with sliced bananas. On the side I generally have a glass of V8-Fusion juice and a cup of tea. In the spirit of the Healthy Eats January Challenge, I thought I'd whip up a healthy, easy and quick (only 20 minutes cook time) breakfast that can be enjoyed by the whole family. Seeing as it is National Oatmeal Month, it seemed fitting that oatmeal be at the heart of today's breakfast. Feel free to substitute another fruit instead of the apple or used dry ingredients. Just make sure that your dried fruit isn't loaded with sugar or other artifical ingredients.

Time 35m

Yield 10 1.5x7 inch bars, 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups Quaker Oats
1/4 cup smooth peanut butter
1 tablespoon butter
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 cup whole wheat flour
2 tablespoons honey
1/3 cup brown sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon cinnamon
1 apple, peeled and diced

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Grease an 11x7 inch baking pan. If you don't have one, you can use an 8x8, 9x9, or if neceessary an 11x13.
  • Place peanut butter and butter in a microwave safe dish. Heat in the microwave for 30-45 seconds or until butter is melted. Stir together.
  • Place all ingredients, except fruit, into a bowl. Using an electric beater or KitchenAid mixer, beat ingredients together for approximately 1 minutes.
  • Peel a whole apple and thinly chop into pieces, no larger than the size of your thumb nail.
  • Stir the apples into the oatmeal mixture.
  • Pour the mixture into greased pan and press entire mixture down firmly with your fingers.
  • Place pan into the oven and cook for 25 minutes or until edges are golden brown. If you are using an 11x13 pan, it will take a bit less time because the mixture will be much thinner.
  • Let cool for 10 minutes before slicing into strips. Let the remaining bars cool entirely before you place in tupperware or wrap them in foil.

Tips:

  • Feel free to adjust the sweetness of the bars by adding more or less honey or maple syrup.
  • If you don't have almond flour, you can make your own by finely grinding almonds in a food processor.
  • To make the bars nut-free, you can substitute sunflower seed butter or another nut-free butter for the almond butter.
  • If you don't have rolled oats, you can use quick oats, but the bars will be a little less chewy.
  • Be sure to press the mixture firmly into the baking dish to ensure the bars hold together well.
  • Allow the bars to cool completely before slicing and serving.

Conclusion:

Apple butter oatmeal bars are a delicious and nutritious snack or breakfast option. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With their combination of oats, apples, and spices, these bars are a great way to start your day or satisfy your sweet tooth.
