Kacie- can I get your oat bars recipe? They sound perfect for breakfast on the go! Thanks!

[kacie tri-ing]

Sure! I make thing up most of the time :-) Thus, LOTS of variation!

2 ish cups of thick cut oats
6 egg whites
about 1/2 cup of almond milk, or whatever milk
Cinnamon
Sweetener (optional: My mom uses splenda or truvia, I use about 1 tsp of brown sugar and 1 tbsp of honey)

Optional stuff! I (or my mom who loves my random recipies) have tried all kind of variatons

Smash 2 bananas, and chop 1/2 cup of walnuts

Raisins or other dried fruit

PB2 (dried peanut butter) or some almond butter

Pumpkin!

My personal favorite....chocolate chips


Two options: 8x8 glass pan for 30 minutes at 350
or muffins for about 25-30 minutes

As you can see...I make things up. The point is that you are baking the oats in egg whites and milk with whatever flavor you want!!

I hope you enjoy! I would love to hear if you come up with another variation!
