So let’s talk these Apple Cinnamon Oat Bars.
They are SO good! And they don’t actually taste “healthy”, even though, they pretty much are. My kids loved grabbing them as a snack and taking them with us on the go.
These bars are very soft, with delicious cinnamon spice and bits of apple throughout. They are tender and moist and delicious.
They aren’t necessarily the prettiest bars, but they are hearty, and are absolutely fantastic with a hot cup of coffee or tea in the morning and a great way to start the day. They are very filling and will last for awhile. This is always a plus with a bar recipe for breakfast.
But if you’re not in the mood for a morning breakfast bar, then enjoy these Apple Cinnamon Oat Bars as a late afternoon snack or even an after dinner treat. My kids enjoyed them after school with some milk. I loved mine with an afternoon tea break.
They are so easy to bring with you and honestly are quite filling.
