Introduction

This is Jamie Eason's recipe, but I changed it to use ingredients I had on hand. The original recipe ingredients are listed as substitutions.
To make oat flour, just whirl regular oats in a blender or a coffee grinder on high until they turn into flour.

Number of Servings: 8

Ingredients

    Cinnamon Sprinkle:
    1/3 C Splenda no calorie sweetener (or Xylitol, of other non-caloric sweetener of choice.)
    2 tsp. Cinnamon

    Batter:
    1 1/2 C oat flour
    2 scoops Vanilla UMP (or whey protein, but UMP always cooks up so much better!)
    1 T baking powder
    1/2 t salt
    1/2 C Splenda (or Ideal, or 1/4 C Stevia in the Raw, or other non-caloric sweetener of choice)
    1 egg (or 2 egg whites)
    1 C nonfat milk (or 1 C almond milk or other milk of choice)
    1/3 C of unsweetened applesauce

Tips

To swirl the batter, I insert a knife and, without lifting, make a zig-zag pattern in the batter back and forth, moving down the pan when I turn the knife to go the other direction. Then I turn the pan 90 degrees and do the same thing in the crosswise-direction, so that it cuts through the previous swirl.

One final note- If you are paying attention to macros, the carbs Spark gives this recipe are wrong. There is NO WAY there are only 10g a piece!


Directions

Heat oven to 350 and Grease an 8"square baking pan.

In a small bowl, stir together the 1/3 C Splenda with the cinnamon and set aside.

In a medium bowl, combine the oat flour, UMP, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

In a large bowl, combine the Splenda, egg, milk, and applesauce. Add the flour mixture and stir until well combined.

Pour about 1/4 of this mixture into the pan (it will make a shallow layer), and spread evenly. Over this, heavily sprinkle about 2/3 of the cinnamon-Splenda mixture. Spread the rest of the batter over top, spreading gently to cover, and then sprinkle evenly with the remaining cinnamon-Splenda.

Draw a knife back and forth in a swirling motion to marble the cinnamon mixture into the batter, but don't over mix or else it will be too blended.

Bake 22-28 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let cool in pan 10 minutes, then cut into 8 bars.
