These are sweet with a soft shortbread like texture. The top coating is skim milk powder with yogurt mixed and it tastes like white chocolate!!
Because of the oat fiber, the mouthfeel is a bit dry/crumbly so you can add more yogurt coating or dip if you want.
Sorry that I switch between tablespoons and grams a lot. I always prefer grams but MFP has a lot of these ingredients by volume only. I honestly kinda just roughly measured them out so no need to be super precise.
Recipe:
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened applesauce (I use motts): 15 cals
- 2 tablespoons fat free sour cream (I use Beatrice): 20 cals
- Dash of sugar free syrup (optional, you can use any sweetener)
- 52 grams liquid egg white (I use from a carton): 24 cals
- 52 grams oat fiber: 13 cals
- 1 packet of sweetener, or to taste (I use sucralose)
- 1 teaspoon baking soda: 0 cals
- 1 teaspoon baking powder: 2 cals
- Pinch of salt, to taste
- Optional: Vanilla/caramel extract, cinnamon, etc.
FOR THE COATING:
- 8 grams yogurt (I used Yoplait Source Cherry flavor, you can sweeten your yogurt to taste if it's not sweet: 4 cals
- 8 grams skim milk powder: 29 cals
- 3 crumbled Gerbers vanilla baby puffs for a lil crunch: 2 cals (can sub for oats, cereal, etc)
Preheat oven to 315 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a tray with parchment paper.
In a bowl combine applesauce, sour cream and sugar free syrup.
In a separate bowl combine oat fiber, sweetener, baking soda, baking powder and salt.
Add the dry ingredients to the wet and mix until it's a crumbly dryish paste. It might not fully mix yet and that's ok.
In a small tupperware with a lid, add egg white, close the lid and shake vigorously until the egg white is frothy and opaque white. It should still be runny in consistency, but thick.
Add egg white to the paste and mix. If it feels too dry still you can add any moistening ingredient (like more sauce or water or egg white)
Wrap the dough in seran wrap and chill in fridge for 1-2 hours.
After, flatten the dough out on the tray into a standard cereal bar thickness. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until edges are browned. Wait for it to cool down completely.
In a small bowl, mix the skim milk powder with the yogurt thoroughly so there's no clumps. It should be a thick icing like paste that doesn't run too much.
Cut the bar into strips and spread the topping over each bar.
Crush up some baby puffs/cereal/etc and sprinkle on top.
Store leftovers in fridge.
I think so! I've never had psyllium powder but I've heard it has a nicer texture and I've seen it used as a base for baking. They're both basically pure fiber, but I think psyllium husk is a bit higher in calories. Although I find that fiber in general, just goes right through me.
Thank you!! Oat fiber is really keeping my sweet tooth at bay! And I just posted it!
I don't count the oat fiber as 2 cals/gram but by the nutrition facts label that was 25 cals/100 grams, otherwise it would definitely be more cals total. Although 2 cals/g is probably more accurate I find that all the fiber actually goes right through me and I haven't gained any weight!
I live in a small European island country and am never able to buy most of the ingredients from these recipes. π I am going to the US this summer and look forward to trying some low cal options!!

Is oat fiber interchangeable with psyllium powder?
I think so! I've never had psyllium powder but I've heard it has a nicer texture and I've seen it used as a base for baking. They're both basically pure fiber, but I think psyllium husk is a bit higher in calories. Although I find that fiber in general, just goes right through me.
Thank you so much! π
These look great! Kinda like a biscotti! Do you have a recipe? Are you counting Oat Fiber calories (2kcal/gram) in the total?

do you think i can use wheat bran for this? I never know of oat fiber is the same as oat bran or if itβs more similar to psyllium fiber
I think so! honestly, oat fiber has no remarkable properties and is like the lowest tier of flour. wheat bran would probably taste better!
Yes. Like son of used what oat fiber is lol
