apple peanut butter cinnamon oatmeal bars

Sunday mornings at the farmers market mean bushels of fresh apples (and some free time to bake).  I decided to make a healthier spin on a cookie with no added sugar or flour.  Chances are, you have all of these ingredients on hand so grab a large bowl and preheat your oven to 350 degrees!

2 cups rolled oats

1 cup shredded apple 

(1 medium-sized apple, I used green apple to make these less sweet,

tip: use a mandoline or cheese grater)

1/4 cup natural peanut butter

1/2 cup honey

2 eggs

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
optional: I added 1/4 raw chopped walnuts

Combine all of the above ingredients into a large bowl and press into a greased 9x9 pan until golden about 15-20 minutes

Enjoy! :)
