    Recipe FAQS

    Can I leave out the sugar?

    No the recipe will not work the same without sugar

    What is the texture of these bars?

    These bars are soft like blondies not crunch like granola bars.

    Substitutions

    • almond butter - can be subbed with peanut butter, cashew butter or sun butter for nut free. I don't suggest tahini because it is too liquidy
    • flax eggs - I believe you can use two real eggs but I have not tested this
    • maple syrup - can be subbed with honey or another liquid sweetener
    • coconut sugar - can be subbed with brown sugar

    Scale

    Ingredients

    Wet

    • 2 flax eggs (2 tablespoons ground flax + 5 tablespoons water)
    • ½ cup apple sauce
    • ½ cup almond butter
    • ¼ cup coconut sugar
    • ¼ cup maple syrup
    • ¼ cup melted coconut oil
    • ¼ cup plant milk
    • 1 teaspoon vanilla

    Dry

    • 1 ½ cups oat flour
    • 1 ½ cups rolled oats
    • ½ teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
    • ½ teaspoon cardamom (optional)
    • 1 teaspoon baking soda
    • ¾-1 cup chocolate chips

    Instructions

    1. Make your flax eggs by mixing flax with water. Let sit for at least 5 minutes until thickened.
    2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
    3. Add all wet ingredients to a bowl and mix until just combined. Pour in dry ingredients except for chocolate chips. Mix again until just combined. Lastly fold in chocolate chips.
    4. Pour dough and spread evenly into an 8x8 baking dish lined with parchment paper.
    5. Bake bars for 20-28 minutes. I baked mine for 25 minutes, a knife should come out mostly clean when finished cooking.
    6. Let bars cool for 15 minutes, slice and enjoy. Store the leftover bars in a sealed container in your fridge for up to 5 days, or in your freezer for months.

    Notes

    If you cut the blondies while they are still hot they will be soft and crumbly, the longer you let them sit the firmer they will get.
