Homemade Cranberry Sauce:

Gluten Free Oat Bars:

Preheat oven to 350° F.

Mix cranberries, sugar, and orange juice in a small saucepan over medium heat and cook until all cranberries “pop.” Add in cornstarch, gelatin, and salt. Bring to a boil. Remove from heat and add vanilla extract and orange essential oil.

In a large bowl combine oats, rice flour, sorghum flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, sugar and mix well. Add in palm shortening and coconut oil. Mix by hand until it forms small crumbs.

Grease a 9×13 pan with coconut oil and press crumb mixture (reserving about two cups for topping) in an even layer on the bottom. Spread cranberry sauce over crumb layer. Sprinkle reserved topping in an even layer.

Bake for 25 minutes or until top begins to brown. Remove and allow to cool before cutting into bars.
