Recipe: Grain-Free Cinnamon Breakfast Bar

Recipe: Grain-Free Cinnamon Breakfast Bar post image

It’s fun to make pancakes on a lazy Sunday, but when you are rushed during the week, these grain-free breakfast bars are perfect. They are great with eggs, or can stand alone, loaded with butter. You can make them ahead, wrap them in individual portions and refrigerate or freeze them. They are loaded with nutrition, simple and satisfying!

When you are gluten-free or grain-free it’s a challenge to find a healthy bread substitute that’s easy to make.There are lots of gluten-free breads on the market, but many are made with very starchy substitutes that have not been properly prepared. I do not like most gluten-free breads or baked goods for this reason.

Here is a simple and nutritious bread substitute that is made with whole ingredients that will add nutrition, not take it away. Slice the bar lengthwise and toast. Add lots of butter and eat with eggs or other protein for a satisfying meal!

    Thank you for this recipe. I made those yesterday (with solid coconut oil in place of butter) and we enjoyed them this morning for breakfast. Yummy!
    I would like to share a little “trick”for a super smooth finish on the top: simply wet your hands with cold water and pat lightly. Very quick.

    This is by far THE best coconut bread/slice/bar (whatever, to me this is a bread replacement) ever! Have tried so many recipes and not one comes close. Cannot work out what makes this recipe different, giving such a wonderful bready/cakey texture… the apple??
    Who knows. Main thing is that finally I have a product that fills that “bread” hole. Thank you to whoever devised the recipe. (Any other gems up your sleeve?)

    This is perfect for sweet or savory toppings – we sometimes make it without the cinnamon and use as sandwich bread. Delicious! My favourite grain free ‘bread’ recipe. Thank you.

      The primary way to decett devices and their capabilities is by looking up their user agents in a device decettion repository like WURFL or Device Atlas. With high end devices you can and should supplement that with capability probing using JavaScript libraries like Modernizr.Dividing devices into groups depends on how you are segmenting you webapp versions and demands extensive testing. The three bulleted groups in the last paragraph of the post are still valid as a starting point.

    I haven’t made these yet, but plan on doing so. Have you ever used this to make French toast? I’m going to browse your other recipes now 🙂
