I decimated a recipe and created a relatively low sugar, gluten free alternative!
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together butter, brown sugar and peanut butter. Add eggs and vanilla, mix well.
In a medium bowl whisk together flour, baking soda and xanthan gum. Add flour mixture slowly, making sure it’s incorporated, but do not over mix. Stir in oatmeal by hand.
Grease a 9 inch round pan or equivalent pan. Spread mixture in a pan, wet hands and press the mixture down evenly if desired. Bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
Remove from oven and immediately drop the peanut butter from the topping ingredient list by spoonfuls evenly around the top. Allow to melt and spread smooth with a spatula.
Allow to cool thoroughly.
In a small saucepan, bring honey, evaporated milk, and butter to a full boil for 45 seconds. Remove from the heat and add the carob and chocolate chips. Whisk until chocolate sauce is smooth. Pour evenly over bars and allow to set before cutting and serving.
guar gum and sometimes even buckwheat flour can be used as an alternative to the alternative to wheat gluten
