Healthy Cookie Bars
Jul 7, 2009 Random
On my wife’s old blog (which is no longer active) there was a recipe for healthy cookie bars. We tweaked it a little bit to make it even healthier and I wanted to write it down here because they are too good to forget.
Combine:
3/4 cup canola oil (I suppose you could use olive oil, but I don’t know how the taste would change)
1 cup brown sugar
1 egg
2 tsp vanilla
Sift in and blend:
1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
Stir in:
1 1/3 cups quick oats
1/2 cup chocolate chips (more or less, depending on preference)
Press into 9×13 glass pan, sprayed with olive oil (or other nonfat cooking spray). Bake at 350 for 15 minutes. Set glass pan on cooling rack to let cool.
EDIT: Ok, so I realize that a lot of people are probably put off by the fact that “healthy” and “cookie” are in the same sentence. I’ll post a picture the next time I make these to help convince you that these are GOOD. Don’t write them off just because it says they are “healthy”.
