PEANUT BUTTER AND APPLE OATMEAL BREAKFAST BARS



Peanut Butter and Apple Oatmeal Breakfast Bars image

I rarely cook anything for breakfast. A typical breakfast for me consists of a whole wheat bagel thin with peanut butter and honey, some days I top it with sliced bananas. On the side I generally have a glass of V8-Fusion juice and a cup of tea. In the spirit of the Healthy Eats January Challenge, I thought I'd whip up a healthy, easy and quick (only 20 minutes cook time) breakfast that can be enjoyed by the whole family. Seeing as it is National Oatmeal Month, it seemed fitting that oatmeal be at the heart of today's breakfast. Feel free to substitute another fruit instead of the apple or used dry ingredients. Just make sure that your dried fruit isn't loaded with sugar or other artifical ingredients.

1 tablespoon butter
2 tablespoons vegetable oil

1/3 cup brown sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon cinnamon
1 apple, peeled and diced

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Grease an 11x7 inch baking pan. If you don't have one, you can use an 8x8, 9x9, or if neceessary an 11x13.
  • Place peanut butter and butter in a microwave safe dish. Heat in the microwave for 30-45 seconds or until butter is melted. Stir together.
  • Place all ingredients, except fruit, into a bowl. Using an electric beater or KitchenAid mixer, beat ingredients together for approximately 1 minutes.
  • Peel a whole apple and thinly chop into pieces, no larger than the size of your thumb nail.
  • Stir the apples into the oatmeal mixture.
  • Pour the mixture into greased pan and press entire mixture down firmly with your fingers.
  • Place pan into the oven and cook for 25 minutes or until edges are golden brown. If you are using an 11x13 pan, it will take a bit less time because the mixture will be much thinner.
  • Let cool for 10 minutes before slicing into strips. Let the remaining bars cool entirely before you place in tupperware or wrap them in foil.

OATMEAL, APPLE AND PEANUT BUTTER BARS



Oatmeal, Apple and Peanut Butter Bars image

I have had this recipe for years and recently started making it after not finding any other oatmeal bars that were a nice combination of good nutrition and good flavor. Not overly sweet and fattening like a cookie, but not so ultra healthy they aren't appealing to kids. You can adapt the recipe, adding any dried fruit you like, use part whole wheat, add some ground flax, my 3 year old likes adding some mini chocolate chips on top. Can't argue with that! Great for breakfast or a afternoon snack.

APPLE PEANUT BUTTER BARS



Apple Peanut Butter Bars image

Tart apples dipped in peanut butter have always been one of my favorite snacks. These peanut butter apple bars are an ode to my childhood favorite granola bars and my never-ending craving for apples and PB!

Provided by Dan Langan

Categories     dessert

Time 2h5m

Yield 12 bars

Number Of Ingredients 16

Nonstick cooking spray
5 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 medium tart apple, such as Granny Smith or Gala, cored and cut into 1/4-inch cubes (no need to peel)
1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
1 1/2 cups rolled oats
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon fine salt
3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/3 cup lightly packed light brown sugar
1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup your favorite peanut butter
1 large egg, at room temperature
1 cup dried baked apple chips, broken into small pieces
1/4 cup white chocolate chips or semisweet chocolate chips
1/3 cup dried baked apple chips, broken into small pieces

Steps:

  • Make the bars: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F with a rack in the center. Spray an 8-inch square baking pan with nonstick spray, line the bottom with parchment paper, then spray the parchment.
  • Melt the butter in a medium skillet and then pour into a medium heatproof bowl, reserving about 1 tablespoon of the butter in the skillet. Add the apples and 1 tablespoon of the granulated sugar to the skillet, toss and cook over medium heat until the apples are softened and slightly shrunken and most of the juice has evaporated, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • While the apples cook, whisk together the oats, flour, salt, cinnamon, and baking soda in a medium bowl and set aside.
  • In the medium heatproof bowl, stir the brown sugar, remaining 1/3 cup granulated sugar, peanut butter and vanilla into the melted butter. Add the egg and mix well to combine. Stir in the dry ingredients, mixing well, and then stir in the cooked apples and apple chips. The dough will be stiff.
  • Spread the dough into the prepared baking pan and smooth the top. Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, until evenly deep golden brown and the center feels firm to the touch. Place the pan on a wire rack and cool completely.
  • Finish the bars: Remove the cooled bar from the pan. Melt the white chocolate chips in the microwave in a small microwaveable bowl in 8 second increments, stirring well after each until melted, about 30 seconds. Transfer to a sandwich bag, snip off a small opening at the tip and drizzle the white chocolate over the surface of the baked bar. Sprinkle with the apple chip pieces. Cut in half and then cut each half into 6 bars. Store covered at room temperature for up to 4 days.

Tips:

  • Prep the Ingredients Beforehand: For a smooth and efficient cooking process, measure and prepare all the ingredients before starting. This saves time and ensures you have everything you need.
  • Use Freshly Ground Oats: Freshly ground oats offer a more wholesome and flavorful taste compared to pre-ground oats. If you don't have a grinder, consider buying whole oats and grinding them yourself.
  • Don't Overmix the Batter: Overmixing the batter can result in tough and dense bars. Mix only until the ingredients are well combined.
  • Chill the Dough: Chilling the dough before baking helps it set and prevents it from spreading too much in the oven.
  • Bake Until Golden Brown: Keep a close eye on the bars while baking. They should be golden brown on top and slightly firm to the touch.

Conclusion:

Peanut butter and apple oatmeal breakfast bars are a delectable and wholesome treat that combines the goodness of oats, peanut butter, and apples. They are easy to make, portable, and packed with nutrients, making them an ideal breakfast or snack option.
