6-Ingredient Oatmeal Apple Pumpkin Bars
This silly simple pumpkin apple bar recipe is the perfect wholesome treat to celebrate fall flavors! These soft and chewy bars are flourless, vegan, and refined sugar-free and you'd never guess it!
Equipment
Ingredients
- 2/3 cup pureed pumpkin
- ½ cup pure maple syrup
- 3/4 cup unsweetened almond butter
- 2 1/2 cups rolled oats
- 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
- 1 large granny smith apple peeled, cored and chopped
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and line an 8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper. If you don't have parchment paper, spray the baking dish with cooking spray or grease it with coconut oil.
- Combine the pureed pumpkin, pure maple syrup, and almond butter (the wet ingredients) in a large bowl and mix well until a thick, creamy wet mixture forms.
- Add the rolled oats, pumpkin pie spice and sea salt to the mixing bowl (the dry ingredients) and mix until a thick, sticky dough forms.
- Mix in the chopped apple until it is well-distributed throughout the dough.
- Spread the pumpkin apple oatmeal bar mixture into the prepared baking dish using a rubber spatula and bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the center tests clean (I do 30 minutes).
- Allow the apple bars to cool to room temperature before slicing and serving.
Notes
Store apple oatmeal pumpkin bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. You can also freeze the bars in a large zip lock bag or freezer bag for up to 3 months.
