Easy Oat Slice
An easy oat slice recipe, made with rolled oats, and simple pantry ingredients, my kids' favourite slice!
Prep Time

Cook Time

Total Time
25 minutes
Ingredients
- 1 Tbsp chia seeds or 1 Egg
- 2 Tbsp water
- 125 grams butter, melted
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1/2 cup plain flour
- 1 1/2 cup rolled oats
- 3/4 cup raisins
Instructions
- If you are making the egg-free version of this recipe, then start by soaking the chia seeds in the water in a small bowl, leave them aside for 10 minutes or so. If you are going to make this recipe with an egg then you can skip this step
- Mix the brown sugar and melted butter together, I use a whisk for this step
- Whisk in either the soaked chia seeds or an egg and the vanilla
- Add the flour, mix well (I swap to a wooden spoon at this stage)
- Add the rolled oats and mix well
- Add the raisins and mix so they evenly through the mix
- Pour the mix into lined slice tin (I use a 20 x 20 cm tin, a cake tin will also work if you don't have a slice tin
- Bake at 180 degrees Celsius (350 F) for 20-25 minutes or until the edges are golden and start to come away from the edge of the tin
- Allow to coo,l then slice into squares
Notes
- You can substitute coconut sugar or white sugar for the brown sugar if you prefer
- You can substitute a regular egg for the chia seeds and water if you don't require an egg-free recipe
- This recipe will work with gluten-free flour
- I have not tested this recipe with fats and oils other than butter, but it would probably work with coconut oil (note this assumption is based on my baking experience, I have not tested this specific recipe with coconut oil)
- The raisins can be substituted for other dried fruit, chopped dates or apricots are lovely too
