Berry Breakfast Bars

Ingredients:
  • ½ cup Persian Lime Infused Olive Oil 
  • 2 Tbsp Brown Sugar 
  • 1 egg 
  • 1 cup All Purpose flour 
  • ½ cup Quick Oats 
  • ½ tsp Baking Soda 
  • ½ tsp Sea Salt 
  • 2 Tbsp Milk 
  • 2 cups Berries – blackberries, raspberries, blueberries or a combination 
  • ½ cup Brown sugar 
  • 2 Tbsp Lemon juice 
  • 2 Tbsp Blackberry Ginger Dark Balsamic 
  • 2 Tbsp Cornstarch 
  • Step 1 - Preheat the oven to 400°F 

 

Directions:

Step 2 - In a small bowl mix together the oil, sugar and egg. Add in the flour, oats, baking soda and salt and stir to combine together. It will make a crumbly mixture. Mix in the milk to form a still-loose but moist dough. 

Step 3 - Spray a 9x9 square pan with cooking spray. Reserve 1 cup of the dough mixture and press the remaining dough into the prepared pan to form a thick crust. 

Step 4 - In a small pot add the berries and brown sugar. In a small bowl or measuring cup, mix the lemon juice and cornstarch until no lumps remain. Pour into the pot with the berries. Place over medium-high heat and cook until the berries are bubbling and thickened. 

Step 5 - Pour the berries over the prepared crust and crumble the reserved dough overtop. 

Step 6 - Bake in the prepared oven for 10 minutes, then reduce heat to 350°F and bake an additional 10 minutes. Let cool completely before cutting and serving
