RASPBERRY OAT SQUARES

These delicious and healthy treats are shared from a fellow Essential Oil Goddess and healthy Momma friend in our oils Tribe – and I’m sharing them with you for a Valentine’s treat to share with your own little darlings.

I store them in an air tight glass container or freezer bag, stacking the bars on top of one another with parchment paper between them.
HOW TO:
Preheat oven to 350F
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper
In two large mixing bowls separately combine + mix the DRY ingredients & then the WET ingredients.
Then pour the wet into the dry, mix to fully to combine.
Once mixed, mix in frozen raspberries & optional chocolate chips
Pour onto line baking pan & shape & press the mixture into a rectangle or square with your hands.
Bake for 25 minutes & let cool before cutting with a pizza cutter or knife into desired square or bar sizes.
Wet Ingredients
2 bananas mashed
4 tbsp of pure maple syrup
2 eggs
2 Tbsp runny, creamy, nut or seed butter (just nuts) of choice
Ex cashew, almond
1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract or (Young Living) Pure Vanilla Essential Oil
1/2 cup of melted coconut oil (I melt mine in the preheating oven in a glass measuring cup on a baking pan) let cool slightly to avoid cooking the eggs
Dry Ingredients
4 cups of organic oats (GF if needed) (I like using half rolled, half oat flakes but all full oats works too)
2 cups of almond flour/meal
1 cup of unsweetened coconut shreds
1/2 tsp cinnamon or 1 drop Cinnamon Essential Oil
1/2 tsp sea salt
Last Add Ins
2 cups organic frozen raspberries
(Optional)
Semi-sweetened non dairy chocolate chips or Lily’s No Sugar Added Chocolate Chips
