WHITE HOUSE FRUIT AND OAT BARS



White House Fruit and Oat Bars image

This recipe came to The Times in an article about Bill Yosse, the White House pastry chef under President Obama. "Mr. Yosses' most recent mission is changing the White House tradition of the bottomless cookie plate. (Among White House journalists, President Clinton was known for going straight from a grueling run into the pastry kitchen. Only part of it is visible through a window, but reporters outside recognized him by his sneakers.) To edge out the cookies, Mr. Yosses decided to create a child-pleasing crunchy granola bar without nuts, chocolate or white sugar. "We went through many tastings on this one," he said in his skinny galley kitchen, patting the final result, a mix of toasted oats, sesame seeds and chewy dried fruits into a sheet pan."

Time 50m

Yield 2 dozen bars

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 tablespoons grapeseed oil, or other neutral oil, plus extra for brushing pan
2 cups rolled oats
1/2 cup mixed seeds, such as pumpkin, sunflower and sesame
1/2 cup honey
1/3 cup dark brown sugar
1/3 cup maple syrup
Pinch of salt
1 1/2 cups mixed dried fruit, such as raisins, cherries, apricots, papaya, pineapple and cranberries (at least 3 kinds, cut into small pieces if large)
1 teaspoon ground cardamom or cinnamon

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Line a 9-inch-square baking pan with parchment paper or foil, letting a few inches hang over side of pan. Brush with oil.
  • Spread oats and seeds on another baking pan and toast in oven just until golden and fragrant, 6 to 8 minutes, shaking pan once.
  • In a saucepan, combine oil, honey, brown sugar, maple syrup and salt. Stir over medium heat until smooth and hot. In a mixing bowl, toss together toasted oats and seeds, dried fruit and cardamom. Pour hot sugar mixture over and stir until well combined.
  • While mixture is warm, transfer to prepared pan, pressing into pan evenly with an offset spatula.
  • Bake until brown, 25 to 30 minutes. Transfer pan to a rack and let cool completely. Using the overhanging foil or paper, lift out of pan and place on a work surface. Cut into bars, about 1 1/2 inches by 3 inches.

CHEF JOEY'S OATMEAL, FRUIT & NUT BARS



Chef Joey's Oatmeal, Fruit & Nut Bars image

I made these little gems this morning as part of my holiday baking. I'm not sure where I found this recipe. They should be cooled thoroughly before removing from the baking pan. I used hazelnuts, but I think almonds, walnuts or pecans would also work here. I used kumquat preserves in mine. You can use raspberry or apricot too.

Categories     Bar Cookie

Time 50m

Yield 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/2 cup vegan margarine (or 1/2 cup light oil)
2/3 cup packed brown sugar
1 1/2 cups oats (not instant)
1/2 cup spelt flour (white)
1 cup hazelnuts (toasted and chopped fine)
1 cup golden raisin
1/2 cup tart jam preserves

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375'F.
  • Lightly spray a 8x8 inch square baking dish with oil.
  • Cream the margarine and brown sugar together until well blended.
  • Stir in the oats, flour and toasted chopped hazelnuts. Mix well. Remove one cup of this mixture and set aside.
  • Press the remaining mixture into the bottom of your prepared pan. Try to get it as even as you can.
  • Mix the raisins and preserves well. Spread this mixture on top of the oat mixture leaving a 1 inch border around the edges without any raisin mixture.
  • Sprinkle the reserved oat mixture on top of the fruit and press down lightly.
  • Bake for 25-30 minutes until the top is golden.
  • Cool these for about 10 minutes.
  • Then, with a wet, sharp knife cut the squares into 16 pieces. Dip the knife in water every time you cut, this is sticky.
  • Let the squares cool and cut again before removing.
  • These are delicious warm or cold and would be great with a dollop of non-dairy whipping cream or some vanilla soy ice cream.
  • Bon Appetit!

Tips:

  • Use ripe bananas: The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your bars will be.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing will make the bars tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Press the batter firmly into the pan: This will help the bars hold together better.
  • Bake the bars until they are golden brown: This will ensure that they are cooked through.
  • Let the bars cool completely before cutting them: This will help them hold their shape.
