The original recipe called for 1 tbsp baking soda which seemed wrong - I changed it to 1 tsp. Flax meal is available at major supermarkets and in health food stores. Substitute 1 cup shredded carrots for 1 apple, if desired. Substitute plain yogurt for the buttermilk, if desired. Recipe Source: Relish Mag
Ingredients:
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups old fashioned oats
2 tablespoons flax seed meal (optional)
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
2/3 cup butter, softened
2 eggs
1 1/3 cups buttermilk or 1 1/3 cups plain yogurt
2 medium apples, peeled, cored, and chopped
1 cup chopped walnuts or 1 cup pecans
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Directions:
1. Grease a 13 x 9-inch baking dish.
2. To prepare bars, combine flour, oats, flax meal, baking powder, baking soda, salt and ground cinnamon in a medium bowl; set aside.
3. Combine granulated sugar, brown sugar and butter in a large bowl. Beat with a mixer at low speed until just blended. Increase speed to high and beat well. Blend in eggs and buttermilk. Decrease speed to low and gradually add flour mixture, beating until just blended and scraping sides of bowl. Fold in apples. Pour into pan.
4. To prepare topping, combine walnuts, brown sugar and ground cinnamon; mix well. Sprinkle evenly over batter. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
5. Preheat oven to 350°F
6. Uncover pan and let stand for 30 minutes. Bake 45 minutes, or until a wooden toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Serve warm.
