Ingredients

2 dl demerara sugar
200 g butter
2 dl rolled oats
About. 2.5 dl apples jam or puree
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon cinnamon
½ teaspoon salt
About. 35-40 g cold butter
Directions
- Put flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, and butter in a food processor. Run the machine until you get a crumbled but dry dough.
- Add oats and cinnamon. Run the machine until everything is good and mixed. You now fill half of the mixture in a baking tin that is square. Press the mixture down firmly with your hands until you get a firm bottom. You must have the baking tin lined with baking paper beforehand. The smaller the shape, the higher the oat bars you get. I used a form of 22 x 31 cm, which gave 24 pcs. with a height of approx. 2 cm.
- Next, you spread as evenly as possible, the apple puree. You can make your own apple puree, but it has to be without lumps, or buy a good quality apple puree with lots of apples.
- Sprinkle over the last half of the crumbled dough.
- Finish by tearing over a little cold butter.
Bake: 160 ° C for 40-45 minutes.

Allergy: Gluten. You can try gluten-free flour. They may be a little too loose, but I haven`t to tested it. Lactose free. There is only a little lactose in the butter, and it is tolerated by most people. High FODMAP due to apple puree. Therefore, switch to another low FODMP jam such as strawberries or rhubarb.
