Notes
Storage: Store the oat bars in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. It will not be as crisp but can be reheated in the oven to make more crisp.
Freezing: These bars will keep frozen well for up to 2 to 3 months. Once cooled, you can freeze the bars in the pan by covering with foil and placing in a freezer bag. You can also freeze individual bars by separating them with parchment and placing in an airtight container. Thaw in the fridge or at room temperature.
