Delicious soft oat bars made with just 5 ingredients perfect for breakfast. Egg free and easy to make dairy and gluten free too.
Between cooking for work and cooking for my family I’m honestly fed up of the constant mess in my kitchen. It literally feels like I am loading and unloading the dishwasher all day long.
So my aim at the moment is to create recipes that use minimal dishes and equipment, starting with these Breakfast Berry Oat Bars.
Everything gets mixed together in the same dish they are cooked in. And I use a cup for measuring too to keep it quick and easy.
If you prefer to measure out properly then don’t worry, I’ve also included the full measurements in the recipe box below.
How To Make Breakfast Berry Oat Bars
Start off with one banana and mash it directly in the dish. Any square or rectangle dish will work just fine.
Next add oats, milk, vanilla extract and frozen berries and mix well.
I used blueberries and strawberries but any kind of frozen fruit will be fine.
Whack into the oven for 35 minutes and then leave to cool for a few minutes before cutting into 8 pieces.
Gluten, Dairy & Egg Free Breakfast Bars
These breakfast bars are naturally egg free. But they’re also easy to make gluten and dairy free too.
Simply use certified gluten free oats and your dairy free milk of choice.
Serving & Storing Breakfast Oat Bars
I serve these with some and some yogurt and fresh fruit.
These oat bars will keep in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave.
They can also be frozen and left to defrost in the fridge overnight.

Hi can I use old fashioned oats?

Hi Cathy, Thank you for your question. We just used everyday oats for this recipe, if you do happen to try with any other type please let us know how they turned out.
