Ingredients:
1/2 c butter
1/2 c brown sugar
1/2 c white sugar
1 egg
1/3 c peanut butter
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 C flour
1 C old fashioned oats
1 C chocolate chips (Optional??????)
Directions:
Cream butter and sugars. Add egg and peanut butter. Mix well. Stir in dry ingredients. Press into greased 9x13 pan. Sprinkle chocolate chips (and nuts?) over top.
Bake 20 - 25 min until golden brown. Cool then serve.
These two like cleaning the bowl best! |
*I used Rapadura for both sugars - worked fine....let them COOL - or the chocolate will burn the roof of your mouth and the bar will crumble.
Notes: Deja planned all sorts of healthy things with these (leaving out the chocolate must be an option in our family). My kids devoured these....and I will copy Deja and double or triple the batch and freeze some...great take out snacks.
I think I'll use craisins and take them to PWOC - the ladies probably wouldn't think chocolate is a suitable breakfast option. LOL

Those look really, really yummy. Wonder if it would work at all without the eggs, I might have to try and make a veganized version, the photo is tempting me!
I do know - they ARE a lot like cookies in a pan and not like a cake. I know you bake cookies without the egg. Worth a shot.
If the egg is needed to make it stick together, you could try 1 TB soy flour with 1 TB water. Unless you are avoiding soy!
Jodi-I have an egg/milk/peanut allergic child and made a pan of these using egg replacer and soynut butter. I'd imagine you could use the flaxmeal/water option to try and make them vegan as well. HTH
Thanks everyone for all those additional ideas and substitutions. I read it wrong the first time and thought it said 4 eggs, I think the font of the 1's just threw me off I must have been reading fast. I know things with many eggs seem to be the hardest to substitute (ie angel food cake). Anyway look forward to trying these, hopefully next weekend and I like those substitution ideas.
