Chocolate Raisin Bars

So I have a lot of quick cook oats, I am trying some recipes to use them up! I was craving something sweet but at least semi-healthy and this is what I came up with. The inspiration for the recipe came from runners world magazine. They used egg and honey in theirs, I like brown sugar in cookies and bars more I feel they keep moisture better. I think they also used less chocolate and more oil. Thank you runners world for the inspiration although I have not made yours I think I would like mine more!

Ingredients:
• 1 1/2 cups unbleached flour
• 2 1/4 cups quick-cooking oats
• 1/2 cup raisins
• 3/4cup mini chocolate chunks
• 1 1/2 tsp baking soda
• 1/4 cup vegetable oil
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1/4 cup brown sugar
• 1 1/2 tsp Ener-G egg replacer dissolved in 2 tbsp hot water
• 2 tablespoons soy milk
• 1 1/2 tablespoons vanilla extract
• 1 tsp salt

Directions:
Mix dry ingredients except for the chocolate and raisins in a stand mixer or large bowl by hand. Set this aside, then mix the soy milk, egg replacer, oil and vanilla together, incorporate the dry ingredients about a half cup at a time keep mixing on a low setting.
