Introduction
These bars are great for gluten-free in a hurry. Excellent for road trips or camping. Not a low-fat food, but packed with good fats and energy. I use them as a meal replacement accompanied by a piece of fruit, yogurt, or salad. These bars are great for gluten-free in a hurry. Excellent for road trips or camping.

Tips
You may sprinkle the top with 1.4 c of semi sweet or dark chocolate chips and slightly press into batter before baking.
If you are following low-carb just omit the honey and chocolate chips. Perhaps add a little xylitol or stevia and 1/4 c. coconut milk for sweetness instead.
