HARVEST BAKED OATMEAL BARS

These baked oatmeal bars are basically glorified fruit and nut bars. We love fruit and nut bars and we love baked oatmeal, so it only made sense to bring the two together. The best part is these bars make a great on-the-go breakfast or snack. We love simple mornings!

HOW TO STORE THESE OATMEAL BARS

These can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. You can simply place them in a storage bag or a sealed Tupperware-like container. Once you are ready to eat just take one out and snack away!

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit and lightly grease an 11X7 baking dish. Blend 10 dates into little bits or chop them up into small chunks. Place blended dates into a medium bowl.
2. Add the oats, oat flour, salt, baking powder, poppy seeds, almonds, and cranberries to the bowl with the dates and set aside.
3. In a large bowl, beat eggs together with almond extract, syrup, coconut oil, and unsweetened almond milk until combined. Stir the zest and juice of one entire orange into the wet ingredients. Ensure no seeds get squeezed into the batter.
4. Mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, making sure the dates get distributed evenly. They tend to clump together in one spot. Pour the dough into the prepared baking dish, pressing down firmly to evenly pack in the dough.
5. Bake for 30 minutes or until the cranberries are popping and the oats are golden. Remove from the oven and let cool completely before cutting into squares.
