A: Yes, but the texture may be different. Quick cook oats will give you a chewier and more uniform texture.

A: You can try using carob powder as a substitute for a different flavor or simply leave it out for a peanut butter oat bar.
Q: Can I make these bars gluten-free?
A: Yes! Just look for gluten-free oats to ensure the recipe is gluten-free.
