Instructions:
-
Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
-
Prepare Pan: Grease a 9-inch by 13-inch pan, or you can use two 8-inch by 8-inch pans.
-
Combine Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine all the ingredients – rolled oats, prunes, white sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, salt, and sesame seeds. Mix well until everything is evenly distributed.
-
Adjust Consistency: Ensure that the mixture is moist enough to form a ball without needing any extra liquid.
-
Spread Mixture: Transfer the mixture into the prepared pans and spread it evenly using a spatula or your hands.
-
Bake: Place the pans in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 30 minutes or until the bars are golden brown and set.
-
Cut into Squares: Remove the pans from the oven and, while still hot, cut the bars into squares using a sharp knife.
-
Cool Bars: Allow the bars to cool completely in the pan before attempting to remove them.
-
Soften Fruit: If the prunes are too hard, consider soaking them in a bit of water before starting the recipe, as they may not soften sufficiently during baking.
-
Serve: Once cooled, serve these delicious oatmeal breakfast bars and enjoy!
