How to Make Raisin Chocolate Chip Bars

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease an 8x13 inch baking pan.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: 1 ½ cups flour (kamut, whole wheat, or spelt), ½ cup rolled oats, ½ teaspoon baking soda, ½ teaspoon baking powder, ½ teaspoon salt, ½ cup brown sugar, and ½ cup granulated sugar.
  3. In a separate medium bowl, combine the wet ingredients: ⅓ cup unsweetened applesauce (or low-fat yogurt), ⅓ cup soymilk (or low-fat milk), 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1 egg (or flax egg for vegan option: 1 tbsp flaxseed meal + 3 tbsp water).
  4. Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. In a small bowl, combine ½ cup chocolate chips, ½ cup raisins, and ½ cup chopped walnuts (optional).
  6. Pour half of the batter into the prepared pan. Sprinkle evenly with the chocolate chip, raisin, and walnut mixture.
  7. Pour the remaining batter over the topping, smoothing the surface with a spatula.
  8. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the bars are golden brown.
  9. Let the bars cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares.
