Has anyone an Oatmeal Bar recipe that is NOT sweet?

Question

All oatmeal breakfast bar recioes I've seen are sweet. I'm trying to come up with something savory-- not sweet-- for the local diabetic. Thank you.

Jo-Ann's Power Bars
"These power bars are delicious and much more nutritious than most granola bars. They are very filling, too. Instead of using dried mixed fruit, feel free to substitute any of your favorite dried fruits. Same goes for the nuts."
INGREDIENTS
1 cup quick-cooking rolled oats
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1/2 cup wheat and barley nugget cereal (e.g. Grapenuts TM)
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 beaten egg

1/4 cup honey
3 tablespoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/4 cup unsalted sunflower seeds
1/4 cup chopped walnuts
1 (7 ounce) bag chopped dried mixed fruit
DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Line a 9 inch square baking pan with aluminum foil. Spray the foil with cooking spray.
In a large bowl, stir together the oats, flour, cereal, and cinnamon. Add the egg, applesauce, honey, brown sugar, and oil. Mix well. Stir in the sunflower seeds, walnuts, and dried fruit. Spread mixture evenly in the prepared pan.
Bake 30 minutes, or until firm and lightly browned around the edges. Let cool. Use the foil to lift from the pan. Cut into bars or squares, and store in the refrigerator.

Answer 3

I, personally, wouldn't take a "box" mix that requires oven cooking and put them in the microwave..but here's a microwave brownie mix that you can try in the future. MICROWAVE BROWNIES 1 c. sugar 2 eggs 1/2 tsp. salt 1 c. chopped nuts (any kind) 1 tsp. vanilla or lemon flavoring 1/2 c. cocoa 1/2 c. butter Crisco or butter 3/4 c. all-purpose flour In mixing bowl beat together the eggs, sugar, flavoring and salt for one minute at medium speed or until very light. Add melted butter Crisco (or butter) beating well. Mix in flour and cocoa at low speed. Stir in nuts, spread evenly in 8 or 9 inch square pan or glass dish, well-greased. Microwave on high 6 to 7 minutes (if not using rotary, rotate dish half turn every 2 minutes). When done, top will look dry and spring back when touched. Cool before cutting. About 20 brownies.
