Adapted from this recipe on Vegweb.
Vegan Oat Bars
1 Tbsp of flax seeds blended with 3 Tbsp of water (or egg replacer equivalent to 1 egg)
2 medium bananas, mashed
1/3 cup applesauce
1 Tbsp of maple syrup
2 and 2/3 cups oats
1/3 cup wheat bran
1/2 cup dried fruit (i used apricots)
2/3 cup chopped nuts (i use walnuts)
1/2 tablespoon cinnamon
pinch of salt
soymilk or water
Preheat oven to 350 F / 180 C. Oil a cookie sheet.
Mix all the dry ingredients (oats, bran, fruit, nuts, cinnamon, salt) together in a large bowl.
Mix all the wet stuff (flax “eggs”, banana, applesauce, maple syrup) together in another bowl.
Combine the dry stuff with the wet stuff. Add a little soymilk or water if it seems really dry.
Turn out the mixture onto the cookie sheet and shape into a square or rectangle.
Bake for 15 minutes in a 350 degree oven.
Remove from the oven, slice into bars, and put back into the oven for a few minutes so that the edges of the bars get a little crispy deliciousness going on.
Take out of the oven again. Have a bar while they’re warm. Let the rest cool completely before storing.
