Oatmeal Flaxseeds Breakfast Bars are very good for breakfast. These bars are not only filled with the goodness of oatmeal and flaxseeds but pumpkin puree also makes it so healthy. With the natural sweetener like maple syrup or honey makes it eating guilt free. Being eggless, oatmeal flaxseeds breakfast bars are gluten-free as well, just a caution to use gluten-free oats.
Nowadays I am using vegetable puree as one of the wet ingredients. Which is a healthy substitute for oil quantity used in the recipe. This oatmeal flaxseeds breakfast bars recipe I noted down more than a year back when I used to search for healthy bakes. Being first time in bars baking I was afraid to experiment at first. What if this goes wrong or I will not like it because of no extra sugar added. But believe me, these breakfast bars taste so delicious having choco chips inside and moist texture. Moreover, my little one who is 2.3 years old daughter ate two squares in one go. Which proved me its deliciousness and I too was happy to feed something healthy and nutritious snack to my kids.

Let see how to make these healthy and nutritious oatmeal flaxseeds breakfast bars. This recipe is gluten-free for this reason I used oatmeal flour, which is why the texture is denser. Using wholewheat flour these bars will be more spongy and light. I used peanut butter glazing for decoration, though I did not like the taste of peanut butter with the bars. So avoid if you do not like peanut butter.
Oatmeal Flaxseeds Breakfast Bars
Ingredients 12-16 Squares
1+1/2 Tblsp flaxseed powdered finely
2 Cup oats flour (I used 1 cup rolled oats+ 1 cup oat’s powder)
1 Tsp cinnamon powder
1 Tsp baking soda
1/4 Tsp salt
1 Cup pumpkin puree
1/3 Cup maple syrup or honey
1/4 Cup oil
1 Tsp vanilla essence
1/2 Cup water
1/3 Cup dairy-free choco chips
For Glaze
1 Tblsp peanut butter
1 Tsp olive oil
Method
- First of all, soak the flaxseeds powder in 1/4 cup of water for 10 minutes. This water quantity is adjusted from the listed ingredient list only.
- Sift together all dry ingredients in a bowl and kept aside.
- In another large mixing bowl combine all wet ingredients. In addition to this add flaxseeds mixture as well.
- Now add dry ingredients to wet ingredients and combine well. There should be no lump.
- Mix choco chips into the wet batter. (Before combining dry ingredients take 1 tsp of the flour. Choco chips should be rubbed with this flour. This helps choco chips not to sink in wet batter.)
- Preheat the oven at 180 C.
- Grease a square pan and transfer the batter. Sprinkle some choco chips on top of it. Bake it for 30-35 minutes.
- Allow pan to cool down completely and then cut the squares.
- In a small bowl take oil and peanut butter. Microwave it for 2-3 minutes or till peanut butter is melted.
- Drizzle this on the top of the bar’s surface. Serve them with milk, a perfect snack oatmeal flaxseeds breakfast bars are ready to eat.
Notes
- Add cocoa powder if you like chocolate flavor.
- I used 1:1 quantity of rolled oats and oat’s powder. Both ingredients can be used as a full quantity.
- Avoid peanut butter drizzling in case you do not like peanut butter. I avoid it now.
- With oats, these bars are denser. Let them cool down completely before cutting.

For some reason I thought Oats were not gluten free. Interesting bars with Oats. I shall pass this recipe to my friend who is gluten sensitive.
Next week am going away for a family holiday but have to take lots of eggless baked goodies. So this recipe has come at the right time. I’m going to try it out.
