Easy Gluten Free Breakfast Bars
These gluten free breakfast bars make a great grab and go breakfast! They are easy to make and are perfect those those busy mornings.
Ingredients
- 1 ¼ cup gluten free rolled oats * see note
- ¼ cup tigernut flour * see note
- 3 tablespoons flaxseed meal
- ½ cup almond flour * see note
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ cup coconut oil
- ⅓ cup maple syrup If you like it sweeter, add 1 tablespoon more.
- 2 large eggs
- ½ cup raisins
- ½ cup chopped walnuts
- 2 tablespoons chia seeds
- ¼ cup unsweetened shredded coconut
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350º F.
- Spray coconut oil or line an 8x8 baking dish with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, add all of the dry ingredients. Mix well.
- In a medium bowl, add the wet ingredients. Whisk to blend. Do not make the coconut oil too hot when melting it. You don't want it to cook your eggs. Melt it for just 20-25 seconds so it is liquid enough to mix into the wet ingredients without clumps.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix well into a thick batter.
- Scoop the breakfast bar batter into the prepared pan and press down lightly with the back of a wooden spoon to pack it down.
- Bake 25-30 minutes or until done. Remove to a cooling rack. Cut when the breakfast bars are fully cooled.
Notes
- It is critical to use gluten free oats if you are Celiac. Cross-contamination runs high in regular oats.
- If you can't find tigernut flour, you can use any gluten free flour blend in the same amount.
- If your gluten free flour blend doesn’t contain xanthan gum or guar gum, please add 3/4 teaspoon.
- To make this recipe nut-free, omit the almond flour and substitute an additional 1/3 cup gluten free flour blend.
- To test for doneness, insert a toothpick into the center of the oatmeal bars. If the toothpick comes out clean, it is done baking. If you see batter or crumbs, the bars need to bake longer.
- These breakfast bars will keep up to 4 days in an airtight container, or up to 4 months in the freezer.
SPECIAL NOTE
Please know that every gluten free flour blend has a different starch to grain ratio. If you use a blend I didn't test, you may need to adjust your moisture levels in your baked goods.
