Oatmeal pumpkin bars

Oatmeal pumpkin bars

3 eggs (room temperature)

1 tsp vanilla

¾ c coconut oil (melted)

¾ c applesauce

1 c pumpkin

3 c oat flour

½ c almond flour

1/3 c tapioca flour

1/6 c coconut flour

2 c stevia

1 ½ tsp baking soda

1 tsp baking powder

1 tsp salt

1 tsp cinnamon

½ tsp cloves

½ tsp ginger

opt: 1 c walnuts finely ground

Mix eggs and vanilla thoroughly. Meanwhile melt coconut oil. When the egg mixture is at room temperature (if this mixture is not at room temperature, the coconut oil will thicken and you’ll get hardened clumps). Add the oil to it. Mix the applesauce and pumpkin (if needed, warm in microwave until this gets to room temperature; see reason above). Add this to the other liquid mixture.

Measure all the dry ingredients into a large bowl. Mix together then add the liquid mixture. Blend well.

Place in well greased jelly roll pan. Use coconut oil (dab a napkin in the container and spread all over the bottom and sides). Smooth out the top. Sprinkle the walnuts on top and place in a 350 F oven for 18-20 min.

When cooled, cut and serve.
