Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Old-fashioned oats
- 1 cup Whole wheat flour
- 0.5 cup Brown sugar
- 0.75 cup Low-fat milk
- 0.5 cup Nutella (or a low-fat chocolate hazelnut spread)
- 1 large Egg white
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 cup Chopped hazelnuts (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x9 inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
In a large bowl, mix together the oats, whole wheat flour, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk the egg white, low-fat milk, and vanilla extract until thoroughly mixed.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until you achieve a cohesive mixture.
Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly with a spatula.
Drop spoonfuls of Nutella over the mixture and use a knife to swirl it gently into the batter for a marbled effect.
Sprinkle the chopped hazelnuts over the top if using, pressing them lightly into the batter.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown on the edges and set in the center.
Remove from the oven and allow the bars to cool in the pan for at least 10 minutes before cutting them into squares.
Serve the bars warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
