Grab-and-Go Blueberry Oatmeal Snack Bars Ingredients For the blueberry chia jam: For the bars: Directions Preheat oven to 325°F (163°C). Grease an 8-by-8-inch baking dish with coconut oil or cooking spray. Heat a small saucepan over medium heat. Add blueberries, chia seeds and maple syrup. Cook for about 10 minutes, stirring often. Use a potato masher to smash blueberries for the “jam” layer. Set aside. Combine oats, oat flour, sugar, cinnamon, salt and baking soda in a large bowl. Add applesauce, maple syrup and coconut oil, stirring to combine. Set aside a heaping half cup of the oat mixture and then press the rest evenly into the prepared pan. Top with blueberry chia jam, spreading evenly with a spoon or spatula. Sprinkle the rest of the oat mixture on top. Bake for 30 minutes. Cool completely on a wire rack before cutting into 12 bars. Store in the refrigerator.
