I
like to use rolled oat when come to baking. Using it in bar recipe definitely
is my favourite way of baking. I had bake with this bar recipe for many times
but with different fillings. Until now I still enjoy it !
Today I'm using cream cheese as filling. Who doesn't like cream cheese? Actually it is inspired by a bakery shop of my neighbourhood. The mixed fruits cream cheese is baked as tart filling. Since I'm not big fans of pastry tart I decide to bake the cheese filling in between rolled oat bar. Like other oatmeal bar chewy texture with firm muffin-y cream cheese filling. I like to munch them whenever I feel hungry.
