I can’t wait to try these, they look amazing. Chef John, you have literally changed my life! My kids think that I’m the most incredible cook and anxiously await my next masterpiece. Little do they know that all the credit goes to you. I’m a culinary school dropout who would have loved to have done what you’re doing, but life had other plans for me. Thank you for your outstanding recipes, not to mention your sense of humor and sharing your gifts with all of us. I appreciate you so much. Much love from LA❤️

I'm going to use this as the base for a no bake cheesecake. Looks amazing.

You're amazing John. You are.

[@SarahLizDoan]

[@tessasilberbauer6219]

That sounds delicious enough to need licensing

[@QuirkyUncleDave]

Be sure to refer to it as a no bake *breakfast* cheesecake to justify your future consumption.

[@TheActualCaveman]

I like how you keep picking the bar up, taking a bite, and setting it back down in the shot. Found it really funny for some reason.

[@annajoie700]

Me too!! 👏🏼🤭

[@arthas640]

1:40 they're called "old fashioned" rolled to differentiate them from quick cooking/instant oats. I think its also marketing, since it makes them sound older and more rustic as opposed to the modern processed instant oats.

[@noocemiller6005]

Was going to explain Old fashioned but you’ve already done a good job of it.

[@HyperIonMake]

So the answer is yes, there is a new hip and trendy kind of oats

[@gnuthad]

The modern variety of rolled oats is still rolled as per "old fashioned" rolled oats but then they're cut into much smaller pieces which allows them to cook and release their starch in a couple of minutes.

[@ash3rr]

In my country they are called 'whole oats' ... I abandon marketing hype when it comes to food.

[@profesorqwertius]

Well, there is a technological difference between those two oat products: *rolled oats* are made of pre-steamed oat grains that are pressed, which result in just pressed and slightly precooked flakes as we know them. *Instant oats* are made of oat flour: firstly you grind the oats to flour, then steam it and create small flakes of it. Instant oats have higher glycemic index and thus you feel hungry quite soon. Old fashioned rolled oats fill your tummy for greater time span.

[@jonathannagel7427]

Heck yeah, with confectioner’s glaze on top (to keep up the path to diabetes)!

[@dgwdgw]

Very easily. Seems like Pop Tarts have about half the frosting and filling, and much less flavorful pastry, than they did a decade or two back. They're really no longer worth the calories.

Made these with strawberries and then with raspberries. Both excellent. Totally works as a summer desert with a spoon of Cornish clotted cream on top.

... not to mention WAYYYY healthier than the highly processed, sugar LOADED supermarket bars. Grand SLAM, Chef John. 👍👍👍

[@judyd.8338]

these are plenty sugar loaded, lol. And also very processed (flours, sugars, and oats are alllll processed). But yea, maybe slightly less crap for you than pre-packaged bars. Still though, not healthy.

[@Iamwrongbut]

Judy D. You can definitely reduce the added sugar (would recommend). And it’s hard to come by unprocessed flours and oats. There really isn’t a health benefit to rolling your own oats so “processed” can sometimes be misleading.

[@gingergolden2543]

I made these yesterday, used all whole wheat and in an 8x8. Turned out amazingly well! Not too sweet, nice bright strawberry flavor. Excellent recipe!

How can you possibly have LEFT OVER strawberries?

[@nikkiviolanti4477]

I was about to leave this exact comment 😂

[@charliemay9893]

Freezer jam? Strawberry wine, pancakes, crepes.

[@MarySanchez-qk3hp]

... you have leftover strawberries? Mine never sit around long enough to be left over! I wait for this time all year. My favorite fruits are soft fruits, perishable and short-lived. My eyes roll into the back of my head when I see perfectly ripe, fragrant, dripping-down-your-chin-sweet apricots, berries and peaches at the grocery. The only favorite fruits I can't get where I live, are MacIntoshes, Concord grapes, and cherimoyas. You could always make fruit leather from your abundance, or preserves... and in the winter, it will remind you of warmer days. Xmas presents! ;)

[@kendavis8046]

I was very glad to see that this recipe did NOT include the step "and a dash of cayenne"! Thank you, Chef John, for all the entertaining and delicious content you send us. I've made many of your dishes, and your instructions on all recipes are very easy to follow.

[@jimgellein1072]

Saw this last night and made them this afternoon. Just cut them after three hours of cooling. They look great and taste great. I’m not a fan of strawberries but do like breakfast bars and enjoyed these. Thank you very much for the recipe and video. Will try a different fruit next time.

I'm making these tonight! Can't wait. I accidentally added 1/2 cup of sugar to the strawberries instead of 2 tbs, and added 2 tbs brown sugar to the oatmeal. I think it's going to be okaay. Outcome: Bars a soft after 45 minutes bake and 1 hour cooling, but sweet edible. Will make again with 2tbs sugar/1 lb strawberries.

Chef John.. with all due respect ... and I mean your are my all times greatest teacher... I wont to draw your attention to the fact that "Old fashion" is as opposed to "Quick cooking".. It is my gut feeling.. we could hit the Webster... to settle it. Whichever way the answer comes.. you would always be my teacher...

These were AWESOME!!! Made over the weekend precisely as is except didn't have whole wheat flour so used all white. Pan was 9X13" & seemed too large but worked out fine. Stored in oven with cookie sheet over top. Less "crisp" next day but every bit as good. Will try a half batch in square pan next time.

Looks like a great recipe. If your strawberries are nice and ripe, save yourself time and use an egg slicer (you know, the kind with the multiple wires) to dice your berries. Works like a charm.

This is fantastic. I can't wait to make these for the little ones. I can do halves or thirds and it'll last forever! Plus because of... the thing.... strawberries are dirt cheap! Sadly, I heard California may throw out over a million pounds of strawberries because restaurants and other commercial buyers aren't able to buy. Aldi was selling a quart for a buck! They freeze well. Go buy some strawberries people and help the industry! 💗🍓🍓🍓💗

I listen to the legend that is chef John before bed, so now that it's 3pm I wanna take a nap after watching this video.

[@Core10knee]

@Danielle Anderson that's why I sleep with wireless headphones. Well my husband used to snore before he got a CPAP and I would use them to drown out the noise, but now I can't sleep without sound now. He's quiet as a mouse fart with his mask on now and I can't fall asleep in silence. So food wishes before bed and meditation to put me to sleep and a fan for good measure. Even with all that I can still wake up if I hear my kids get out of bed. Sorry I'm blabbering, I haven't gotten much adult interaction in the last two or so months. Hope all is well with you and yours!

[@MarySanchez-qk3hp]

Just got some lovely strawberries at Sam's the other day. Most of the package was huge, red ones. many would have passed muster in a Japanese market, where strawberries are as big as apples, and sell for high prices. I mean, the only way to get perfectly red, very sweet and ripe ones here, is to grow them yourself, but these were very good for commercially grown. A few had pale shoulders. Sugar or another sweetener takes care of that. I'd bet Costco has them now, too.

[@petertully8450]

These look great

[@akarpowicz]

I imagine all kinds of berries would work, or maybe grated apple. Maybe an extra spoonful of starch for extra juicy fruits like blackberry. This has given me lots of ideas.
