Food Prep: Vegan Breakfast - Granola Bars
23:00Hello Everyone!
I decided to start a little series for my weekly cooking/ baking post. Which is food preparation. It is a very time consuming way during the week to not having to cook as much and save some much needed time. Starting with breakfast and mornings. This is when I need the most of time, I rather spend more minutes in bed enjoying my morning coffee than cutting my fruit and cooking oatmeal so having something that is already there and that I only need to take out of the fridge and in my back so I can rush out of the house is so helpful and stressless.
Recipe of the week is a healthy, power oatmeal granola bar.
This is really easy to make I was surprised myself. So quick and actually from scratch as well because as a raw vegan I had all those ingredients at home. But without further ado, let's get started! But before hand I got a version of this recipe here (but its not entirely vegan)
INGREDIENTS
Base:
- 2 cups old fashioned oats
- 4 tablespoons marple or agave sirup which is what I used
- (1 tablespoon coconut oil) --> I didn't use that
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1½ teaspoon cinnamon
- 2 bananas
- (½ teaspoons vanilla)
- I added some cranberries here as well
Topping:
- ½ cup old fashioned oats
- ¼ cup slivered almonds or any other kind of nuts ( I had pine nuts and sunflower
- ¼ cup pumpkin seeds
- 1 cup fresh organic blueberries or any berries (I had a frozen berry mix)
- ¼ cup of coconut-almond milk (or plain coconut or plain almond milk) or any other vegan milk
- ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
INSTRUCTIONS
Base:
- Preheat oven to 350°.
- Line 9 x 9 baking pan with parchment paper, lightly grease with coconut oil
- Add all ingredients in to food processor until completely combined and wet, this may take several minutes.
- Pour into prepared pan and smooth out with off set spatula until evenly spread.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes.
Topping:
- Combine ingredients in medium bowl and stir to combine.
- Removing pan from oven, spread topping evenly over and lightly press down into base.
- Bake an additional 15 minutes
NOTES
You can store the bars in a refrigerator in a sealed container for one week, take one or two every day for breakfast and hop and skip out in the morning without cutting and cooking a bowl of fruity oatmeal because you already have a power breakfast to go!
I hope you enjoyed the post and like the idea of prepping food. Next week will follow a food prep of Lunches, logically...
