These blueberry oat bars are AMAZING, gluten free, and only 160 calories! Though I can’t take credit for these, I can certainly attest to how delicious they are.
I got this recipe from Ambitious Kitchen. I swapped out a few ingredients, but her bars were the inspiration for this healthy treat!

I love a treat with fresh, organic fruit. The blueberries I used are from a local farm and made these bars taste that much better.
The blueberries were thick and juicy and bursting with flavor in these gluten free blueberry oat bars!
I made these on a whim because I never plan anything ahead of time haha! These took practically no time. I love a quick and universal dessert/breakfast.
Multi-talented food is my favorite!

Gluten Free Blueberry Oat Bars
Equipment
- 8×8 Baking Pan
Ingredients
Crust/ Crumble
- 1 1/2 Cups Gluten Free Flour
- 1 Cup Gluten Free Oats
- 1/2 Cup Sugar or Maple Syrup
- 1/2 tsp Cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp Baking Soda
- 1/4 tsp Salt
- 8 tbsp Butter Melted
- 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
Blueberry Filling
- 2 1/2 Cups Blueberries
- 3 tbsp Honey
- 1 tbsp Cornstarch
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease the 8×8 pan.
- Mix the ingredients for the crust/crumble in a large bowl. Take 3/4 of the crust mixture and push into the bottom of the pan to form a base crust. Put aside the other 1/4 of the crust. You will use this for the crumble topping.
- Heat a saucepan on medium heat and add the blueberries, honey, and cornstarch. Heat until the blueberries start to burst. Smash the blueberries and continue to mix until a thick filling forms. When the filling is thick enough, pour over the crust.
- Take the last of the crumble and sprinkle on top of the filling all over. Place in the oven for 30-35 minutes until the filling starts to bubble and the top starts to brown. Let cool and enjoy!!
