Ingredients

For the oatmeal bars

  • 8 ounces rolled oats divided
  • ⅓ cup granulated sugar
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 6 tablespoon coconut oil
  • 1 large egg white

For the strawberry filling

  • 1 pound strawberries
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla bean paste

Instructions

  • Wash the strawberries and dry thoroughly. Hull and quarter the strawberries. Then place them in a small bowl with the sugar, salt, vanilla bean paste and cornstarch. Mix thoroughly and set aside.
  • Line an 8”x8” square baking pan with two pieces of parchment paper in a cross pattern with the excess hanging over the side of the pan and set aside.
  • Preheat oven to 375°F.
  • Measure out 8 ounces of rolled oat by weight and set 1 cup aside. Put the rest in a food processor and pulse until you get a medium ground.
  • Add whole rolled oat, oat flour, sugar, and salt in a medium bowl and mix until evenly distributed.
  • Drizzle in the coconut oil and mix until thoroughly incorporated and everything is equally moist.
  • Measure out ½ cup of the oat mixture and set aside to use as crumble topping.
  • Add 1 egg white to the rest of the oat mixture and combine until everything sticks together and forms a ball.
  • Dump the oat mixture into the prepared baking pan and spread it to cover the entire pan evenly.
  • Add the strawberry mixture and all its juice on top.
  • Sprinkle the oat mixture without egg set aside earlier evenly over the strawberry mixture.
  • Bake for 35 minutes until the strawberry is bubbly and the crumbly topping is lightly brown.
  • Let cool on a wire rack completely before removing from the pan and dividing into individual serving.
