LOW-FAT PINEAPPLE OATMEAL SQUARES
The biggest problem I had while making these is that I kept wanting to eat the batter, though I'm glad I saved some for cooking. Note: they hold up better overnight and stay moist if they are slightly undercooked. They have no egg, and can be made with non-dairy margarine for those with dietary restrictions.

Tips for Making Low-Fat Pineapple Oatmeal Squares
- Use fresh pineapple. Fresh pineapple has a much better flavor than canned pineapple. If you don't have fresh pineapple, you can use canned pineapple, but be sure to drain it well.
- Use old-fashioned oats. Old-fashioned oats have a chewier texture than quick oats, which will give your oatmeal squares a more substantial bite. If you only have quick oats, you can use them, but your oatmeal squares will be less chewy.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make your oatmeal squares tough. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the oatmeal squares until they are just set. Overbaking the oatmeal squares will make them dry. Bake them until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the oatmeal squares cool completely before cutting them. This will help them to hold their shape. You can chill the oatmeal squares in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before cutting them.
Conclusion
Low-fat pineapple oatmeal squares are a delicious and healthy snack or breakfast option. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. Whether you are looking for a quick and easy snack or a healthy breakfast, low-fat pineapple oatmeal squares are a great choice. With their sweet and tangy flavor, these oatmeal squares are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
