Ingredients:
- 3 1/2 cups flour
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/2 cups dry sweetener
- 1 cup vanilla extract
- 1 cup soymilk
- 1 cup water
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- 1 cup carob chips
Instructions:
-
Preheat Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
-
Prepare Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and dry sweetener. Stir the ingredients together until they are well incorporated.
-
Add Wet Ingredients: Next, add the oil, vanilla extract, soymilk, and water to the dry ingredients mixture. Gently fold in the chocolate chips and carob chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
-
Mix Batter: Use a spatula or wooden spoon to mix the ingredients together until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can result in tough bars.
-
Transfer to Pan: Pour the batter into a greased 9×13 inch baking pan, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.
-
Bake: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the bars are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
Test for Doneness: To ensure the bars are fully baked, insert a knife into the center. If it comes out clean or with just a few moist crumbs, the bars are ready.
-
Cool and Serve: Once baked, remove the pan from the oven and allow the bars to cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then, carefully transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely before cutting into bars.
