Time 40m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
1 cup whole wheat flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ cup sunflower seed butter
¼ cup safflower oil or other neutral oil
3 tablespoons packed light brown sugar
1 large egg
1 ½ cups Almond Breeze Unsweetened Vanilla OR any Almond Breeze Almond-Cashew Blend
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
1 medium apple - peeled, cored and finely diced
½ cup coarsely chopped nuts

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Oil two 4 1/2-by-8 1/2-inch loaf pans.
  • In a heavy pan, toast the oats over medium-high heat for 8 to 10 minutes until very fragrant and slightly golden. Stir frequently for even toasting and to avoid burning. Transfer to a bowl. To the bowl with the toasted oats, add the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
  • In another, larger bowl, beat together the sunflower butter, oil, and sugar until smooth. Beat in the egg. Then, carefully whisk in the almond milk so you don't splatter. Stir in the vanilla. Pour the dry ingredients into the wet and fold to combine. Stir in the diced apple and walnuts. Divide the batter between the two prepared pans.
  • Bake for about 25 minutes, until golden and pulling away from the sides of the pans. Using an offset spatula, loosen the bars from the pans and invert onto a rack to cool completely. When cool, cut each pan crosswise into 8 bars. Store in the fridge.

These bars are a great way to use up leftover apples. I always have a few apples that are about to go bad, so this is a perfect way to use them up.
