Oat Bars

11/4/2016

These bars are fantastic and super easy to whip up. They are dense and filling and perfect for throwing into you bag as a snack or to take on your ride as ride food.

I usually add chocolate chips to them and once they are baked, I like to chop them up and wrap them individually to be kept in the freezer for times when I'm in a pinch.

Enjoy!

Ingredients:

2 cups ground large flake oats (or oat flour)
1 cup large flake oats
1 cup coconut sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp sea salt
½ cup almond milk
¼ cup chia seeds, ground
1 cup mashed banana OR unsweetened applesauce

¼ cup coconut oil
½ cup of crushed raw walnuts, pecans, cranberries or chocolate chunks/chips (or a mix) (optional)

Instructions:

Pre-heat oven to 350F.
Line a 9×13 baking dish with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, mix the ground oats, oats, coconut sugar, cinnamon and sea salt together.
In a small bowl, whisk the almond milk and chia seeds together. Add the applesauce or mashed banana and coconut oil and whisk all together.
Add the wet mixture to the dry mixture and combine thoroughly.
Fold in the nuts, cranberries and/or chocolate, if you are using.
Pour the batter in the parchment paper lined pan. Use a spatula to smooth and flatten.
Bake for 30-35 minutes.
Let cool completely, cut, and store in fridge. These can also be frozen for long term storage. If freezing, you can wrap them individually to grab and go!

The day I came ALIVE again!

The day I was reintroduced to cycling was the day I came ALIVE again.

I hadn't ridden a bike since I was a kid and when I hopped on that bike THAT day I felt like a kid in a candy store!

You know the eyes wide open...deer in headlights...giddy with excitement kind of feeling.

Seriously!

Cycling singlehandedly was the catalyst for all of the good that has come into my life including:

::: my health
::: losing weight (from over 200lbs to 135lbs!)
::: feeling empowered
::: building my confidence
::: feeling a sense of immense FREEDOM with the wind in my hair
::: time for ME doing something that I loved and was FUN
::: introducing me to a community of people that 'got' ME
::: like-minded people that were supportive of my goals and dreams
::: going back to school for nutrition
::: somewhere that I could push myself
::: seeing new places and countries on my two wheels
::: my form of meditation

And that's just off the top of my head.

When I started cycling, I got the fun and happy in my life back.

It's the reason I'm so deeply passionate about helping others especially women to experience any part of this.

If this sounds like something you'd love for your life, I invite you join my free community of people transforming their lives through cycling and nutrition.
