- Use old-fashioned oats: Old-fashioned oats will give your bars a chewy texture. If you only have quick oats, you can use them, but your bars will be less chewy.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make your bars tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Press the batter firmly into the pan: This will help the bars to hold together when you cut them.
- Bake the bars until they are golden brown: The bars should be firm to the touch when they are done baking.
- Let the bars cool completely before cutting them: This will help to prevent them from crumbling.
- Store the bars in an airtight container: The bars will keep for up to 3 days at room temperature or up to 2 weeks in the refrigerator.
