Ingredients

Instructions

  • Grind ½ cup rolled oats into a fine oat flour - I used a coffee grinder but you can use a food processor as well. 
  • Preheat oven to 350F
  • Start by cooking the quinoa according to package directions, 1 cup uncooked should make about 2 -3 cups cooked. While your quinoa is cooking on the stove you can assemble the rest of the ingredients.
  • Combine dry ingredients including oat flour, oats, hemp seeds, brown sugar, cinnamon, salt, and baking soda in a large bowl and mix well.
  • In another medium size bowl combine chia seeds, milk, mashed banana, almond butter and vanilla and whisk until smooth and well combined. Chia seeds will start to gel thickening the ingredients.
  • When the quinoa is done add it to the dry ingredients, then add the wet ingredients and mix till well combined.
  • Spread evenly in a 9 x 13 greased baking dish and compact with a spatula. Just press the back of the spatula across the bake so everything is well combined together.
  • Bake 40-45 minutes until browned around the edges. A toothpick should come out clean and it should feel firm. Let cool 30 minutes before cutting into bars.

Notes

Feel free to personalize these bars with chocolate chips, coconut, chia seeds...
