Berry Oat Bars

This winter has been impossibly long and my kids are BONKERS. Max swallowed a quarter the other day  and I'm watching him like a hawk around the clock and Lula refuses to sleep because it's so much more fun to shriek and demand to speak to Dora in the middle of the night...All night. So I'm operating on very little sleep/massive amounts of frustration. Anyway, FOOD! Food is the best!

 We have a playdate today and I like to bake a treat for the little monkeys, but refined sugar is out of the question.  I mean...a girl can only handle so much crazy in her life, and I'm at capacity.

Berry Oat Bars

1 1/2 C oat flour ( I just grind up the organic oats in a Cuisinart)
1 1/2 C organic oats
1 C Brown sugar
 Cinnamon to taste
pinch of salt
1/2 tsp. Baking Soda
1/2 C Coconut Oil
1/4 C Apple Juice

Press 3/4 of the mixture into a 9x13 pan

Cover the top with frozen organic berries  ( I don't even thaw these bad boys)

Sprinkle the remaining oat mixture on top

Bake at  325 for 35 minutes. 

Woot!!!!  These are awesome and healthy and make the house smell AMAZING.
