   Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   1         tablespoon  golden flax meal
   3        tablespoons  water
   2               cups  rolled oats -- not quick cooking, gluten free
   1                cup  gluen-free all-purpose flour
   1                cup  coconut sugar
      1/4           cup  tapioca flour -- or arrowroot flour
   1         tablespoon  baking powder
   1           teaspoon  sea salt
   1                cup  peanut butter -- natural, smooth or crunchy
      3/4           cup  milk -- non-dairy
   1         tablespoon  vanilla extract
      1/4           cup  jam -- any flavor

Preheat oven to 350F. Line an 8 x 8-inch baking pan with parchment 
paper by cutting two strips, each 8" wide and crossing them in the 
pan to create clean edges. Trim the excess overhang, if necessary.

Combine the flax meal and water. Set aside to thicken, 5 to 10 minutes.

In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, all-purpose flour, 
coconut sugar, tapioca flour, baking powder, and sea salt.

In a large liquid measuring cup or other mixing bowl, combine the 
peanut butter, nondairy milk, and vanilla with the thickened flax 
meal mixture until smooth. Add this to the mixing bowl of dry 
ingredients and fold together until fully combined.

Spread the mixture evenly into the baking pan all the way to the 
edges. Take a dough cutter or knife and light score or mark every 2 
inches across in each direction, creating the indented lines for 16 
square bars. Do not cut through the pan of oat bars at this stage.

Dollop about 1/2 tsp of jam on top of each square and gently press it 
with the back of the spoon into the top of each bar.

Bake for 25 minutes, until the edges are golden brown and the bars 
look soft and raised. Cool in the baking pan on a wire rack for 20 
minutes before lifting out by the parchment paper edges and placing 
onto the wire rack. Slice bars where you made the scores.

Cool completely before storing leftovers in the fridge. You can warm 
slightly in the microwave for 30 sec before eating. Consume within 7 days.
