Chocolate Chip Nutella Oat Bars

These oat crumble bars have a hidden Nutella layer and are topped with chocolate chips to make them extra delicious.

To make these chocolate chip Nutella oat bars, I used the same recipe as these applesauce oatmeal bars and these banana oat bars. This time, though, no fruit ! The applesauce or bananas are replaced with Nutella, and the bars are topped with chocolate chips.

This recipe for Nutella oatmeal bars is egg-free (and you'll only need to wash one bowl when you're done making them !)

To make chocolate chip Nutella oat bars, you'll have to combine the dry ingredients (flour, brown sugar, oats, baking powder and salt), before you add in softened butter and mix until it forms crumbs.
Spread a little over half the dough in a pan, press with your fingers to make a base, and bake for 15 minutes.
Take the pan out of the oven and spread some Nutella on it (I'd recommend microwaving it for about 15 seconds to make it softer and easier to spread). Add the remaining crumbs on top, the chocolate chips, and bake for another 35 minutes.
Let the chocolate chips Nutella oatmeal bars cool completely before cutting into squares.

Combine using your fingers until it forms crumbs. You then have to flatten some of the mixture in a baking pan, and bake for 15 minutes.
    Mash a couple of bananas, spread over the bottom of the bars, add banana slices over the mashed bananas, and sprinkle the rest of the oat crumble on top before baking for 35 minutes.
    Keep these banana bars in a box for up to a week. I kept mine at room temperature.

    Make an easy French tart with fresh apples and applesauce.


    applesauce tart recipe
    I'm not even sure this should count as a recipe. I mean, want to know how to make an easy French apple tart ? Here's what you should do : get a pie crust (I used a puff pastry crust but you can use whichever you want), pour some applesauce in your pie crust and cover with apple slices. Bake for about 40 minutes. There. You have a French apple tart. I'm not sure what else there is to say, really.
