1 2/3 cups large flake oats
1/3 cup oat bran
1/3 whole wheat flour (2/3 cup will result in a cakier bar)
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
4 tablespoons melted butter
6 -8 tablespoons honey
3/4 cup pureed canned pineapple, juice removed or 3/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 egg
optional add ins
unsweetened flaked coconut (optional)
sesame seeds (optional)
sunflower seeds (optional)

Preparation
-
Preheat oven to 375.
Whisk the dry ingredients together well.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the butter, honey, pineapple puree, vanilla, and egg.
Stir in any of the optional add ins--if you add a lot you may need to stir in a bit more liquid to bind it.
Spray oil a 9 x 13 inch baking pan (smaller if you want thicker bars). Bake for 20 mins, score the bars and bake for 5 mins more, or until brown.
