Background

These vegan blackberry jam oat bars are super easy to make. They have no extra sugar or oil, and can be gluten-free too, if appropriate oats are used. So they are quite healthy, particularly if made with homemade low-sugar blackberry jam.

Ingredients

3 ripe bananas
1 green apple, grated
1 cup oats (gluten-free, if needed)
1 tsp ground cinnamon
3 Tbsp blackberry jam
3 Tbsp ground almond

Instructions

Preheat oven to 180°C . Grease and line a shallow, about 20x30 cm, baking dish with parchment paper
Mash the bananas with a fork.
Add the oats, ground almond, cinnamon and grated apple, then mix well.
Let the mixture rest for a few minutes.
Add the jam to the mixture and combine gently. If it’s too thick, add some apple juice.
Transfer the mixture to the prepared dish, spreading it out evenly.
Bake in the oven for approx. 20 minutes until golden.
Let it cool, then cut it into bars.
