Healthy and tasty, these Protein Cinnamon Bars are made with only five ingredients. They are a filling snack/breakfast that are so easy to make.

Ingredients

2 Cups Naked Oats
1 Cup Medjool dates or you can substitute 1 cup brown sugar
1/2 Cup Coconut oil melted or, you can use 1/4 cup butter and 1/4 cup coconut oil
2 eggs
1/2 Cup Almond milk

Makes: 9 x 9inch rectangle, 1inch height

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
Add the dates to a small pan and add water to it so the dates are covered. Then, place the pan on the stovetop set to high heat, and let the dates simmer for 3-5 minutes. However, if you are using brown sugar or any other sweetener, you can skip this step and add the brown sugar/sweetener to the blender.
Melt the coconut by placing it in a microwave-safe dish and microwaving it for 20 – 30 seconds until coconut oil is melted and not hot. If you are using butter, melt the butter this way as well. However, if you are using oil, skip this step and add oil to the blender.
Add the eggs, Naked oats, almond milk,as well as the warm, softened dates, and melted coconut oil to a blender. Blend until smooth.
Using a spatula, spoon the mixture out into a parchment-lined, 9×9, baking tray and bake in an oven pre-heated to 350 degrees for 20 minutes.
Serve warm or room temperature as is or glazed (after cool) with a glaze made with cinnamon, icing sugar, and almond milk.

Notes

To make the glaze: add 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, 1/4 cup icing sugar, and a teaspoon of almond milk to a bowl and mix well. If too thick, add in a little more almond milk until icing is thin enough to drizzle on top of bars.
