Apple-Scotch Oat Bars
Cook Time:
Once in a while it’s nice to surprise them with something a little more personal in their lunch bag. Notes can be sweet, but not nearly as sweet and delicious as a homemade snack bar made with apple, butterscotch chips and just a hint of vanilla. Nothing beats hearing that the best part of their day was opening their lunch.
Ingredients
- 1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened
- 3/4 cup cup firmly packed brown sugar
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1-1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder

- 2 cups Large Flake Quaker® Oats or Quick Quaker® Oats (uncooked) *
- 1 medium Granny Smith apple, unpeeled, finely chopped (about 1-1/3 cups)
- 1 cup (6 oz.) butterscotch-flavoured baking chips

How to make it
- Heat oven to 350ºF. Spray 13 x 9 x 2-inch metal baking pan with non-stick cooking spray.
