Ingredients

  • 1 1/4 cups oat flour (145 grams)
  • 3/4 cup old-fashioned rolled oats (88 grams)
  • 3/4 cup Coconut Sugar (112 grams)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt (3 grams)
  • 6 tablespoons melted coconut oil (81 grams)
  • 1 tablespoon water (15 grams)
  • 3/4 cup leftover cranberry sauce (226 grams; or other jam or jelly)

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat the oven to 350ºF and line an 8-inch square baking dish with parchment paper. I like to spray the dish with oil first, so the paper will stick in place. In a large bowl, combine the oat flour, oats, sugar, and salt, and mix well.
  2. Add in the melted coconut oil and water, and stir well, until the dough looks crumbly and sticks together when you press it between your fingers. Reserve 1/2 cup of this mixture for later.
  3. Press the remaining mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan, then bake at 350ºF for 10 minutes.
  4. Spread the cranberry sauce evenly over the top of the crust, then sprinkle the reserved 1/2 cup of crumble over the top. Press it lightly into the cranberry sauce, then bake until the top is lightly golden, about 30 minutes at 350ºF.
  5. Let the bars cool completely, about 4 hours, before slicing into them. They are very fragile when warm, but they will feel firm and dry to the touch when they are cool. Slice into 16 pieces and serve at room temperature. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week.

Notes

  • Nutrition information is for 1 of 16 bars. This information is just an estimate, not a guarantee.
  • If you don't have oat flour on hand, you can pulverize rolled oats in your blender to make it! Measure after blending, to make sure you have enough. I also measure the coconut oil after melting it.
  • For a lower-fat bar, you can replace 2 tablespoons of the coconut oil with 1 extra tablespoon of water, or as needed for the dough to stick together.
