In partnership with our friends at Meal Prep on Fleek, these tangy-sweet lemon oat bars are a fiber-filled start to the day. Healthy fats from coconut oil and almond flour help keep you feeling satiated while our organic monk fruit sweetener helps keep blood sugar from spiking compared to using old school sugar. Pair with high-protein yogurt for a complete meal any time of day!

- While bars cool, heat unsweetened almond milk, lemon juice, and monk fruit sweetener over low heat in a saucepan. Whisk regularly until sweetener has dissolved, 2-3 minutes. Whisk in cornstarch and continue to cook 1-2 minutes longer until slightly thickened. Pour mixture into a small bowl and cool for 10 minutes.
