Servings: 1

Preparation duration: 5 minutes

Cooking duration: 3 minutes

 

Ingredients:

1 teaspoon cinnamon

1/2 cup light corn syrup (light in color - not lite; honey; or brown rice syrup or yacon syrup to keep vegan may be substituted)

1/4 cup granulated sugar

1/4 cup light brown sugar, packed

1/2 cup coconut oil, melted or in liquid state

about 2 1/2 cups quick-cook oats (use Certified Gluten Free Quick Cooking Oats if necessary)

pinch salt, optional and to taste

1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips, melted for drizzling, optional

3 cups sweetened shredded coconut

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Equipment:

aluminum foil

microwave

spatula

bowl

frying pan

Cooking instruction summary:

Line an 8x8-inch pan with aluminum foil, spray with cooking spray; set aside. In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine oil, corn syrup, sugars, and cook on high power for 90 seconds. Stop and stir the mixture. Return bowl to microwave and cook for 90 more seconds. Stop and stir the mixture. Stir in shredded coconut, oats, cinnamon, vanilla, and optional salt. Note - when adding the shredded coconut and oats, add them slowly, bit by bit, rather than all at once. I found the measurements worked perfectly, but because coconut oil, coconut, and oats vary, add dry ingredients until mixture combines, noting it will be quite wet. It solidifies and firms up as it cools. Turn mixture out into prepared pan, packing it down with a spatula. Optionally, melt the chocolate in a small, microwave-safe bowl, about 1 minute on high power, or until chocolate can be stirred smooth. Even drizzle chocolate over bars. I followed the swirling pattern outlined here. Cover pan with foil to prevent frigde smells, and refrigerate until set and firm, about 2 hours. Slice bars into desired shapes. Especially in warmer months, I prefer to store the bars in the fridge rather than at room temperature so the coconut oil stays solid and bars are firmer. They will keep for up to up to 1 month in the fridge, or up to 6 months in the freezer.

Food Joke

The car crash Rabbi Bloom and Father Michael get into a car accident and it`s a bad one. Both cars are crushed but amazingly neither of the clerics is hurt. After they crawl out of their cars, Rabbi Bloom sees the priest`s collar and says, "Just look at our cars - there`s nothing left, but we`re unhurt. You`re a priest and I`m a rabbi so it must be a sign from God. He must have meant that we should meet and be friends and live together in peace the rest of our days." Father Michael replies, "I agree with you completely. This truly must be a sign from God." Rabbi Bloom then says, "Look - here`s another miracle. Although my car is wrecked, this bottle of wine didn`t break. God must want us to drink this wine and celebrate our good fortune." He hands the bottle to the priest. Father Michael takes a few big swigs and passes the bottle back to Rabbi Bloom who puts the cork back in and hands it back to the priest. Father Michael asks, "Aren`t you having any wine?" "No. I think I`ll just wait for the police," says Rabbi Bloom.
