Blueberry Hemp Snack Bars

I am learning a lot about myself, not to mention how to "deal with" and manage people from running our yogurt store and starting a new business. While managing (mostly) high school kids has proven to be a big challenge, it also brings about growth....and who couldn't use a little stretching?

Ingredients

1 1/2 cup oat flour (I grind my own using gluten free oats - buckwheat would probably work)
2 scoops of vanilla protein powder (about 65 grams)
2 Tbsp flaxseed meal
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/3 cup coconut palm sugar or date sugar (or other granulated sweetener)
1/8 tsp sea salt
2 eggs, whisked
2/3 cup unsweetened applesauce
3 Tbsp hemp seeds (if you don't like the earthy taste of hemp, feel free to substutite 1/3 cup your favorite seeds or chopped nuts)
3/4 cup blueberries (frozen or fresh- blackberries, cherries, raspberries or a combo can be substituted)

Preheat the oven to 350F and line a 8x8 pan or large loaf pan with parchment paper (or grease well). Set aside.
