I’m not always the kind of mother that I’d like to be.
Some days I’m not even close.
It’s not that I think I should be perfect. But there are days–like today–when I use words that I shouldn’t and silence where I should have used words.
Lucky for me, it’s almost Rosh Hashanah.
I’m a good enough mother to know when I need to ask forgiveness. A kind apology note helps. So do apple cinnamon forgiveness bars.
Looks like my apology worked.
Here’s to a sweet, happy and healthy new year to all of us!
APPLE CINNAMON BARS
1 cup Old Fashioned oats
1/2 cup almond flour
1/2 cup chopped pecans
1/2 cup chopped almonds
1T cinnamon
1/4 cup unsweetened coconut flakes
1/2 cup chopped dried apples
1/2 cup raisins
1 flax seed egg (1T ground flax seed + 3T water. Let sit until thickens)
3/4 cup honey
Make your flax egg in a small bowl. Mix the remaining ingredients in a large bowl until thoroughly blended. Stir in the flax egg. Bake in an 8×8 pan at 350 for 25 minutes. Let cool before cutting into bars.

All mom’s make mistakes, but it’s the really good ones that know how to say I’m sorry. The granola bars look delicious!
That’s why I’m not afraid to admit in public! The bars are delicious. we finished them in one day
This would be such a great breakfast on the go.
except they don’t last around here until breakfast!
YUM. Gotta try them.
great running fuel!
In our family we take the asking forgiveness seriously. Giving something that you have actually worked on adds a deeper dimension. Wonderful idea.
Thanks! Shana Tova!
What temperature?
We made these but didn’t know the temp… they came out delicious but kinda chewy.
350. Sorry! They weren’t too chewy for me, but maybe it’s a difference in ovens? You could try reducing the honey
