Background

This apple and ginger oat bar is vegan and gluten-free, if appropriate oats are used. It’s also sugar-free and has little oil, which can be omitted if you add half a cup of ground nuts (walnuts or pecans would work well!). These are lovely snacks during the day or with your morning coffee or afternoon tea.
