My aim is to keep the bars as "raw" or unprocessed as possible. I have had exceptional results, and they seem to hold together well even though I use so little flour- not as crumbly as some recipes!

I used whole wheat flour to boost the fiber. I am thinking these warmed up with a scoop of butter pecan ice cream on top would make a nice dessert. Also, I used Wyman Wild Blueberries (they sell them at Costco) and didn't have any seed issues. These are quick and delish! I used whole wheat flour to boost the fiber.

But it's interesting to know that some brands seem less "seedy" than others. Claire, with 12 hour shifts, I'm amazed you find time to do any sort of cooking. You are one devoted baker/cook. I think if I were in medical school or residency, I would be baking cookies at 2 in the morning, but eating Lean Cuisines for every meal. You bake AND cook. Astonishing. Tara, thanks for the inside scoop on huckleberry. I thought that was just another name for blueberry. Rina, thanks for the link. Seedless jams and jellies are tricky to find. Glad to hear Whole Foods has some good ones. I need to plan a Whole Foods shopping trip. KAnn, good luck with your transition. I think being a (healthy) vegan takes a lot of dedication and study, but it seems to be getting easier. Then again, I'm an omnivore so I don't have any first hand experience. Jeanette, I am so glad to hear you tried the blueberry bars! Now if I'd known you'd be reading Cookie Madness, I would have really encouraged you to take the refrigerated million dollar peanut butter cookie dough vs. scratch cookie dough cookie taste test. But like I said. I just left the cookies and went to Target ;). Nancy, as you know, we don’t have Kroger here. But it’s interesting to know that some brands seem less “seedy” than others.
