‘Tis the Season for Strawberry Oat Bars!

Sooo it’s a ‘lil past midnight here and I just finished up a very exciting project that I’m excited to announce very SOON! As I’m snacking on all the berries in season, I have to wonder: is anyone else as excited for strawberry season to finally be here??

I mean, to think of all the fun recipes we can make with strawberries! I’M SO READY.

Anyways, Evan had bought a GIANT pack of strawberries from the store the other day. They were looking like they were at their peak freshness, and I didn’t want to miss out on this prime moment! So of course, what better way to celebrate the start of strawberry season by sharing a super easy & super delicious Fresh Strawberry Oat Bars recipe?

Seriously, my friend Hope made a variation of these, and I was definitely inspired to bake up some strawberry bars the next day! Either way, make these ahead of time for a quick and easy snack, breakfast, or even dessert! You won’t regret it!

Ingredients to Make Strawberry Oat Bars

Gluten-free, dairy-free, vegan, AND delicious? So what’s in these bars anyways? I’m glad you asked!

For the Bars:

  • Old-fashioned rolled oats
  • Almond flour
  • Coconut oil
  • Chia seeds
  • Maple syrup
  • Coconut sugar (or brown sugar)
  • Fresh strawberries (of course!)
  • Strawberry jam
  • Sliced almonds

For the Almond Glaze:

  • Powdered sugar
  • Almond extract
  • Almond milk

How to Make Strawberry Oat Bars

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease an 8 x 8 baking pan with coconut oil, or line with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, add oats, almond flour, coconut oil, maple syrup, coconut sugar, and chia seeds. Mix until combined.
  3. Using a spatula, transfer the oat mixture into the prepared pan and press firmly until batter is packed to the bottom of the pan.
  4. Spread the strawberry jam over the crust until it is evenly coated. Then layer with sliced strawberries and almonds.
  5. Bake strawberry bars for 30 minutes. Meanwhile, make the almond glaze by adding the powdered sugar, almond extract, and milk into a small bowl. Whisk until fully combined.
  6. Remove the oat bars from the oven and pour the almond glaze on the bars. Bake for an additional 5 minutes.
  7. Let cool before serving, then cut into 8 squares. ENJOY!

been making batches and batches of different cooki been making batches and batches of different cookies lately 😍

but what i really need to do is remake my Copycat Chick Fil A Cookie recipe stat!!

It makes 36 perfectly chewy and chocolatey cookies that taste just like the original Chick Fil A cookies you buy in their restaurants! 🌟

And the best part? This recipe uses ingredients you already have in the pantry, and requires no chilling time!

So.. yeah — make it with me?? 🤍🤍

Being a third-culture kid, I grew up eating fusion Being a third-culture kid, I grew up eating fusion food ALL the time 🇮🇩🇺🇸 

From chowing on the trendy "sushi-ritos" with friends and regularly eating homecooked fusion dinners (my mother often couldn't find some of the more traditional Indonesian ingredients in America, so we had to improvise!)

But you know, I'm really thankful for my childhood.

Having to innovate with different ingredients has taught me a deep appreciation for the mixing of flavors 💥 

And so last night (as I was cooking mushroom rice pilaf for dinner), I thought "you know, why not put a little Mexican spin on this very Middle Eastern dish?"

A ½ cup of roasted hatch green chiles and a handful of chopped cilantro later, we had a winning combo of our modern mushroom rice pilaf fusion recipe.

Seriously guys, it was so good we finished the entire panful of pilaf in 2 meals.

If you wanna make it👇👇

Outdoors Date Night! 🥰 @thefeedfeed x @epicbar Outdoors Date Night! 🥰
@thefeedfeed x @epicbar [ spon ]

In honor of this warmer morning today, here’s a photo of Evan and me in the snowy cold last week ❄️ 

Every week, we love setting aside time for a date! While it’s typically filled with sushi, burgers, and good convos, we decided to switch it up! So last week, I convinced Evan to join me for some snow fun outside⛄️ 

I mean, does anyone else get so fidgety after staying indoors all day?? 🤷🏻‍♀️ 

Anyways, knowing what we know now (that both of us get #hangry SOO fast when we’re cold), we decided to stop by our local @themerccoop to buy a few of our favorite #epicbar bites and strips. 🛒 We typically change up the flavors we get, but this time, we chose to go with the Bison Bites, Chicken Sriracha Bites, Salmon Strip, and Chicken Strip!

And let me tell you- these are amazing if you want a super easy way to re-fuel on-the-go! 💪🏼 

Right now, ALL Epic Provisions items are on SALE at local co-ops nationwide until March 2nd! That means you can get:
💥 3 bars for $5
💥2 rinds $5
💥Bites for $4.49
💥2 strips for $3
💥Broths for $4.49

so hey, while we stock up around here, you can find YOUR local co-op by visiting bit.ly/find-coop :)

Do you guys have fun plans today? This weekend? Let me know! ⬇️😊
