Classic bar meets good-for-you ingredients in this updated recipe. If you have the patience, after the bars are cool, store them in a tin for a day to allow the flavors to meld...I think they taste even better the next day.&mdash; Heidi Lindsey, Prairie du Sac, Wisconsin

baking soda

egg, room temperature, beaten

canola oil

applesauce

2g protein. Diabetic Exchanges: 1 starch

Preheat oven to 350&deg;. In a large bowl, combine flours, sugar, cinnamon, baking powder and baking soda. In another bowl, combine egg, oil, applesauce and honey. Stir into dry ingredients just until moistened. Fold in walnuts.

Spread batter into a 13x9-in. baking pan coated with cooking spray. Bake 15-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Combine icing ingredients; spread over warm bars. Cool completely before cutting into bars.

These bars were tasty and so easy to make. They taste very much like a cinnamon roll minus the bread texture. Unfortunately, it's not a keeper for the family, as they missed the bread texture. Otherwise, very tasty and moist!

The cinnamon flavor in these bars is just right. I used one cup of all-purpose flour since there was no wheat flour on hand. Also, walnuts were sparse so I used half walnuts and half almonds for the amount of nuts in the recipe. These are very tasty bars.

Super moist and yummy. I used almonds in my recipe and when I prepared the batter it seemed that there was so little of it to be used in a 13x9 pan. But they ended up looking like a brownie bar size in the pan so perfect.

These are very delicious and moist. They were better the next day and reminded me of a cinnamon roll in terms of flavor. We will be making this again.

I made these for work everyone loved them.  I didn't put the icing on them I sprinkled them with powdered sugar. I will make these again very easy to make and delish!

Easy and quick.  I used unflavored cooking coconut oil.  My only suggestion would be to put frosting on when almost completely cool.  Will make again.

The recipe calls for  1/2 cup of sugar and 1/2 cup of cnfectioners sugar yetyour Nutritional facts, is silent on sugar content ??    How Is  that possible . What is going on at  Tast of Home ?

I made these bars yesterday and followed the recipe to the letter with the exception of the icing.  I skipped the butter and honey; and added 1 teaspoon more of water.  These bars are delicious!!??

Amalet, sugars are a subcategory of the total carbohydrate count of 18 per serving.  Our nutritional listing only lists the categories as a whole.  Hope that clears up any confusion.
