Healthy Oatmeal Snack Bars
About a month ago, I felt the need to reduce the amount of sweets I had grown accustomed to eating. Since we bake often, I grew into the habit of grabbing whatever had been baked recently as a quick meal or snack. Though I am ALL for enjoying yummy treats and think we should, I could tell that my change in eating habits was causing me to feel very fatigued and lazy. I needed a substitute goody that would satisfy my sweet tooth, yet have a nutritional punch too.
I came upon this recipe, and thought I'd give it a try. I ended up tweaking it slightly and changing some of the measurements. I really love these bars. My kids love them too! They definitely curb my sugar cravings without leaving me with a terrible sugar crash. And now that I'm doing the 42 Days to Fit program, they're a perfect snack for me!
Here's what I came up with!
Healthy Oatmeal Snack Bars
1 1/2 C. oats
1/4 - 1/2 C. walnuts, chopped
1/4 - 1/2 C. cashews, chopped
2-3 T. cocoa (my hubby likes 2 T, I like 3)
3 T. ground flax seed
2 T. chia seed (if you have them on hand)
3 T. coconut oil, melted
honey (enough to sweeten to your liking)
Mix all the dry ingredients. Add coconut oil and honey. Mix well and taste for sweetness. Line a
9 x 9 baking dish or pan with foil. Spread mixture evenly into pan and press down with a fork so that the mixture is packed down. Let cool in refrigerator for about an hour.
Once set, lift foil out of pan and cut into bars. Enjoy!
