oatmeal breakfast bars


Not Granola Bars!!!! Warning!!! Not Granola Bars!!!

It's like anything vegan. It's similar to the disappointment of watching a movie after you've read the amazingly awesome book. However, if you just took the movie on its own terms, you'd be fine. It'd be one of your favorites... but not compared to your imagination+book's awesomeness.

These are fruity sweet. They have an interesting texture (maybe because I cooked them too long). They are filling. Plus, KEY: they're really easy to make and easy to experiment and change. I took the Oatmeal Breakfast Bars Recipe.

Substitutions: I used flax seeds instead of flax seed meal, apple sauce in lieu of oil and egg. I used raisins as my dried fruit and raw walnuts as my nut. And, I put them in a pan then cut them after they were cooked as you can tell from the picture.




I'll report tomorrow to see how they function as breakfast bars and taste not hot.

So far I'm a fan.
