Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and line a 8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper.
- Add all of the ingredients except for the chocolate chips to a food processor (oats, applesauce, pure maple syrup, almond butter, ground cinnamon, and sea salt). Note: if you don't own a food processor, you can add all of the wet ingredients and dry ingredients to a large mixing bowl and mix by hand or with an electric mixer.
- Blend until all of the ingredients are combined and a thick mixture forms. It’s perfectly fine if the mixture is grainy and not smooth - this is normal.
- Mix in the chocolate chips until they are well distributed throughout the applesauce mixture.
- Transfer the applesauce bar mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it into an even layer. If you’d like, press extra chocolate chips into the top of the dough.
- Bake on the center rack of the preheated oven for 18 to 25 minutes, or until the bars have set up and are slightly golden brown around the edges.
- Allow the bars to cool for at least 15 minutes before slicing. The longer you wait to slice the bars, the cleaner they will slice. So if you are able to wait until they are room temperature before slicing into them, the slices will come out with a perfect edge.
Notes
- *For sweeter bars, increase this amount to 5 tablespoons, or add additional brown sugar.
