Low Fat Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars Recipe Notes

I used half whole wheat pastry flour and half all-purpose flour to make these low fat oatmeal chocolate chip cookie bars. And substituted unsweetened applesauce for half the oil.

Be careful not to over bake them or they will be dry!

Substitutions & Variations:

No Canola Oil? Substitute your preferred vegetable oil, olive oil, coconut oil, etc.

No Semi Sweet Chocolate Chip? Substitute whatever chips you prefer - dark chocolate, peanut butter, milk chocolate, butterscotch, etc. I think half peanut butter chips and half chocolate chips or half butterscotch and half chocolate would be great too. You could also chop your own chocolate to substitute for chocolate chips.

No Whole Wheat Flour? Substitute barley, spelt or oat flour (affiliate link). Or use all all-purpose flour instead.

Possible Additions: Raisins, dried cranberries, chopped nuts, peanut butter, mashed banana,

Substitutions & Variations

I love this super-easy low fat healthier bar cookie recipe. It's so simple and delicious. You can modify this recipe in lots of ways.

  • I like to use a combination of all-purpose and wholegrain flour but use whatever you like best. Barley and oat flour are good choices.
  • You can use whatever kind of chips you like or a combination. I think half peanut butter chips and half chocolate chips or half butterscotch and half chocolate would be great.
  • Add your favorite chopped nuts and/or dried fruit, but if you are a Weight Watchers member, adjust your PointsPlus value accordingly.
