Apricot Ginger Crumble Oat Bars (Gluten Free) image

Slightly buttery and crunchy with great oat flavor. Apricots and the slightly citrusy and peppery ginger are meant to be together! These bars are a great way to transform fruits and oats into something every kid, big and small, will devour!

Time 1h30m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 cup gluten-free all-purpose flour
½ cup almond meal
½ teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
1 cup gluten-free rolled oats
½ cup packed light brown sugar
½ cup white sugar
½ cup unsalted butter, melted
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
¼ teaspoon almond extract
⅓ cup white sugar
1 tablespoon cornstarch
2 cups pitted and diced apricots
1 tablespoon diced fresh ginger

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease an 8-inch baking dish and line with parchment paper; grease parchment paper.
  • Whisk flour, almond meal, baking soda, and salt together in a bowl. Add oats, brown sugar, and 1/2 cup white sugar; whisk to blend and break up clumps of brown sugar. Pour melted butter, vanilla extract, and almond extract over flour mixture; stir with a spatula until moistened.
  • Press 2/3 of the flour mixture into the bottom of the prepared baking dish to make the crust.
  • Whisk 1/3 cup white sugar and cornstarch together in a small bowl. Add apricots and ginger and toss to coat.
  • Spread apricot mixture over the crust. Sprinkle remaining 1/3 of the flour mixture on top.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until top is golden brown and crisp and filling is bubbling, 35 to 40 minutes. Cool completely before cutting into bars, about 25 minutes.

These bars are a great way to use up leftover apricots. I always have a few extra apricots in the summer, and these bars are a delicious way to use them up.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my bars turned out really crumbly. I think I might have overmixed the dough.

These bars were a bit too dry for my taste. I think I'll add a little bit of milk or yogurt next time.

I'm not a big fan of ginger, but these bars were still really good. The apricot flavor was strong enough to balance out the ginger.

These bars were easy to make and turned out great! The only change I made was to use a different type of jam. I used strawberry jam instead of apricot jam.

The bars were delicious, but I found the crumble topping to be a bit too sweet. Next time, I'll use less sugar.

These oat bars were a hit! The apricot and ginger flavors paired perfectly, and the crumble topping added a nice texture. I'll definitely be making these again.
