It’s holiday baking season and I am kicking off the season with cookie bars. These gluten free bars are a fun twist on a cookie.
Recipe
Ingredients:
1 stick unsalted butter, melted
2 cups oat flour
1/3 cup milk, I used unsweetened almond milk
¼ cup coconut sugar
1 large egg
· 1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
· ½ cup macadamia nuts, chopped
· ¾ cup white chocolate chips
Method:
1.) Preheat oven to 350F and line an 8x8 baking pan with parchment paper.
2.) In a large bowl combine the oat flour, salt, coconut sugar and baking powder. Make a well and in the center add the milk, egg, and melted butter.
3.) Mix to thoroughly mixed. The mixture will be stiff that is fine. Next mix in the white chocolate chips and macadamia nuts. Pour batter into baking pan.
4.) Bake for 20-22 minutes. Enjoy!
Do you find looking at nutrition labels to be confusing and overwhelming? There is a lot of information there, with lots of numbers that add to the confusion. Let’s break down the top things to look out for on a nutrition label:
You know when you eat something sweet and then later in the day you start feeling sluggish and tired? That sugar crash feeling is from a sharp rise in blood sugar levels followed by a decline. Having consistent blood sugar levels provides us with a consistent energy boost. By structuring our meals in a balanced pattern, you will be less likely to experience a “sugar crash”.
