Gluten free breakfast bar with oats?!


Question: Anyone know of a commercially available gluten free breakfast bars with oats ? like these - but Gluten Free.
http://www.clifbar.com/food/products_cli...
Note - NOT just wheat free- NEEDS to be gluten free.
If you don't know the difference or think all oats are gluten free--Oats are naturally gluten free - but when they are processed on equipment with wheat they pick up the gluten from the wheat-so regluar oats/oatmeal has gluten in them - unless you get MCCANNS or Bob's or other barnd oats that are not processed on equipment that also processes wheat - they are not Gluren free.

I called CLIF Bar & Co. and they told me the CLIF Z Bars are wheat free - but not gluten free - therefore not safe for someone with Celiac.

I have found bars like larabar that are gluten free but would like some with Gluten free oats.
Or how about a recipe for the bkfst bars with oatmeal- I can buy gluten free Oats to use in the recipe (as long as recipe doesn't call for flour)

I totally agree with you regarding the fact that oats do not inherently contain gluten. You sound like you have done a lot of research and are very up to speed on gluten.

I don't have a recipe for a breakfast bar with oats, however, I do have an easy recipe for a high protein (no bake) bar with nuts --if you can tolerate them. So here it is:

I hope this helps, I know it is not quite the answer that you were asking for, though thought it might be of interest to you.

You're asking for the impossible. Oats contain gluten. So does wheat, rye, and barley.
