Apple Carrot Oat Bars
Totally made this recipe up in the need to get more finger food for Squirt. She hasn't tried them yet, but I think they're really good!

Carrot Apple Oat Bars


1 cup rolled oats
1 cup whole wheat flour
1/4 cup evaporated cane sugar (could use even less now that I taste them, say 2 tablespoons)
1/2 teaspoon of baking soda
1/2 teaspoon of salt
1 teaspoon of cinnamon

1 cup shredded carrots
1/2 cup applesauce
1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon of olive oil
1/4 cup yogurt (full fat)
1/2 teaspoon of vanilla

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Grease a 9 x 9 pan, preferably glass or ceramic.
Mix all dry ingredients and set aside. Mix all wet ingredients and add to the dry mix. Spoon into pan and press down. Top with a little sugar and cinnamon.

Bake for 25-30 minutes. Cool, cut, serve.
