Perfect Peach & Oat Breakfast Bars

September 9, 2014 5 Comments

Peach-Oat-Bars Peach. Oatmeal. Dates.

Yummy. Yummy. Yummy.

Peaches have always been one of my favourite fruits. I put it in oatmeal, in banana ice cream, in crepes, and of course – directly in my mouth. So sweet and juicy. No other stone fruit compares to the deliciousness that is peaches!

When summer comes, I buy baskets and baskets of them at a time, and I still always seem to eat them all up within days. I just can’t get enough.

And now that summer has come to an end, that means my lovely peaches are making their way out of my kitchen soon. So sad. But peaches that aren’t in season are even sadder, so I rarely eat peaches during any season other than summer.

Peach-Oat-Bars-Vegan-Squares Are you drooling yet?

And with just a tablespoon of maple syrup in the entire pan, these are a healthy breakfast bar that any peach lover would enjoy!

Peach-Oat-Bars-Vegan These bars are a bit crumbly, so I suggest letting them cool completely, and then keeping them in the fridge and eating them cold or at room temperature, not warmed.

If you don’t have access peaches, you can replace them with another fruit of your choice, such as strawberries or blueberries. You may have to adjust the amount of fruit added, though. Enjoy!

    I used nectarines (had them on hand) and 1 egg (I’m not vegan) to help the bars hold together better. I also split the extract between vanilla and caramel. And toasted my almonds first. They smell DELICIOUS. Really versatile recipe.

      Vegan or not, why mess up a good recipe with cruelty and cholesterol?

    Mmm… Peaches and dates? What a yummy combination. These might be a good thing to try for a quick breakfast for my kids — hoping there are still some decent peaches to be found in the grocery stores around here.
