Ultimate Superfood Breakfast/Energy Bar filled with all the good stuff (quinoa, oats, hemp seeds, chia, and almonds) to energize you for the whole day! Gluten free and vegan. —Kelli @Hungry Hobby
Ingredients
1/2 cup
oat flour (1/2 cup ground oats)
2 cups
old fashion rolled oats
1/2 cup
hemp seeds
1/2 cup
brown sugar
1 tablespoon
cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon
salt
1.5 teaspoons
baking powder
1/3 cup
chia seeds
1 cup
unsweetened vanilla almond milk (or other non dairy milk)
1
whole mashed large banana
1/2 cup
almond butter
1 teaspoon
vanilla extract
2 cups
cooked quinoa
Directions
- 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.
