These Raspberry Oatmeal breakfast Bars are gluten-free and vegan. Other then raw honey, there is no added sugar and the sweetness is from the banana in the base of the bars and the raspberries. For this reason, these breakfast bars are not as sweet as they appear but they make for an amazingly complete breakfast. I work out in the morning before heading to court so these also act as my post workout meal. I hope you enjoy.
