Cook over medium to heat until the mixture softens and bubbles slightly, then remove the pan from the heat and stir in the vanilla.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"entry-content\">Pour the peanut butter mixture over the oat mixture, using a spatula to scrape every last bit out of the pan. Stir well with a large metal spoon until all of the oats and cereal are coated in the wet mixture. (The resulting mixture will be very thick and difficult to stir. If you get tired, just picture me making five hundred of these bars in a row, and you\u2019ll feel better!) If using the chocolate chips, allow the mixture to cool slightly before folding in the chips. This will prevent them from melting.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"entry-content\">Transfer the mixture to the prepared pan, spreading it out into an even layer. Lightly wet your hands and press down on the mixture to even it out. Use a pastry roller to compact the mixture firmly and evenly. This helps the bars hold together better. Press down on the edges with your fingers to even out.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"entry-content\">Place the pan in the freezer, uncovered, and chill for 10 minutes, or until firm.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"entry-content\"> Lift the oat square out of the pan, using the parchment paper as handles, and place it on a cutting board. With a pizza roller (or a serrated knife), slice the square into 6 rows and then slice them in half to make 12 bars total.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"entry-content\">rap the bars individually in plastic wrap or foil and store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. Alternatively, you can store them in the freezer for up to 1 month.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span class=\"entry-content\"><strong>Tip:<\/strong> To make the bars nut-free, substitute sunflower seed butter for the peanut butter. Look for lightly sweetened sunflower seed butter, such as by Sunbutter, because unsweetened sunflower seed butter can have a bitter aftertaste.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Serves: 12 Bars Source: Oh She Glows, Angela Liddon Ingredients: 1 1\u20442 cups gluten-free rolled oats 1 1\u20444 cups rice crisp cereal 1\u20444 cup hemp seeds 1\u20444 cup sunflower seeds 1\u20444 cup unsweetened shredded coconut 2 tablespoons sesame seeds 2 tablespoons chia seeds 1\u20442 teaspoon ground cinnamon 1\u20444 teaspoon fine-grain sea salt 1\u20442 cup, plus [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[16],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5546","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-gluten-free"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/recipes.darcyparks.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5546","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/recipes.darcyparks.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/recipes.darcyparks.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/recipes.darcyparks.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/recipes.darcyparks.ca\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=5546"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/recipes.darcyparks.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5546\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/recipes.darcyparks.ca\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=5546"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/recipes.darcyparks.ca\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=5546"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/recipes.darcyparks.ca\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=5546"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
