Gluten Free Cookie Bars: Refined Sugarfree, Eggless, Butterless, Oil Free, Vegan Option


I had granola bars on my mind when I started with this project. Gradually as I moved forward, I had to change my mind and decided to bake these bars. The final outcome was something like cookies and a bit like energy bars. Well, let's take the middle path and christen these as cookie bars.
gluten free energy bars cookie bars sugarfree

Hello friends, welcome back.
It's time for yet another healthy recipe.
It's cookie bars today -
cookie bars? you might wonder!
We have tried energy bars, and we have lots of healthy cookie recipes here
I call these cookie bars because I had decided to make gluten-free energy bars, but as I progressed with the recipe, it ended up being a cookie bar -yes, a mix of cookies and bars
So it has the best of both worlds- cookies and bars.
If you love cookies, you will love these.
If you love barks, then cookie bars will steal your heart.
so what are you waiting for?
Let's jump right into the recipe:
gluten free cookie bars sugarfree vegan option




Ingredients



1/2 cup- poha/rice flakes
1/2 cup- almond meal/powder (check the recipe for almond meal here)
1/2 cup-puffed amaranth
1/2 cup- almond butter (check the recipe for homemade almond butter here)
2 tbsp- pumpkin seeds
2 tbsp- melon seeds
3 tbsp- honey/maple syrup for vegan cookie bars

Though I followed a different process and walked through stepwise, I feel it is easier to do it otherwise.
Simply add all the ingredients to a processor/grinder and process for 2 minutes.
Remove on a sheet and roll out like a chapati - four times thicker - but not too thick.
Bake/airfry at 160 degrees for 20-30 minutes.
My airfryer took 30 minutes.
The gluten free cookie bars were still soft when I removed them from the airfryer but crisped up upon cooling.

Enjoy gluten free energy bars or subtly sweet cookie bars.

Can we use the soaked water for millets? Does millet need to be soaked?

Do millets contain anti-nutrients? Yes, they do. In fact, all whole grains, including oats, contain phytates, which bind to minerals and make their absorption difficult for the body. Soaking is the first step toward reducing anti-nutrients from millets. Soak for at least 6-8 hours to make digestion easier. Discard the soaked water and then proceed to the next step of cooking. Remove foam from top to reduce gassy elements from millets.  How long should millet be soaked before cooking? Soaking the millets overnight is a safe practice. Soaking breaks down the phytic acid in millets or for that matter grains and nuts. Phytic acid hinders the absorption of minerals and nutrients in food, including calcium, iron, and zinc. How? Phytates bind to minerals and nutrients and make their absorption difficult in the gut. Your tummy finds it tough to digest millets in that case. So soaking millets and draining off that soaked water makes it easier on your tummy.  Are millets safe for thyroid? Does
