Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 F. Line a 9 by 9 pan with parchment paper and set aside.

- Pour the milk over the peanut butter mixture and mix until incorporated.
- Next, add the oats, cinnamon, and baking powder. Using a spatula mix well to combine.
- Fold in the chopped apples and mix again to combine.
- Pour the oatmeal mixture into the prepared pan and bake for 30-35 minutes or until it feels set and golden brown.
- Remove from oven and allow it to cool completely before cutting and serving.
Notes
- You can use any apple of your choice. I prefer the crispy type like Honeycrisp or Gala.
- I also prefer that you use quick oats if possible. The bars will hold better if using quick oats. I tried making this vegan-friendly without any eggs, but if you prefer you can use eggs.
- Add more cinnamon for more flavor. My kids aren't big fans of cinnamon so I try not to put too much. You can another another 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon.
- These bars will taste great if you opt to use almond butter instead of peanut butter.
- I recommend that you allow the baked oatmeal bars to cool well before removing them from the pan.
- You may leave these bars covered on your counter overnight and then place them in a sealed container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
