Over Easy
Apple Cinnamon
TL:DR
In 2 Sentences
A short, recognizable ingredient list (oats, almonds, honey, apples, egg whites) with no artificial sweeteners or sugar alcohols, and a flavor that genuinely resembles baked oatmeal.
When to choose Over Easy Apple Cinnamon
Best for on‑the‑go breakfast or pre‑activity fuel when you want gentle sweetness, gluten‑free oats, and dairy‑free protein from egg whites. Not built for keto or for anyone chasing 20‑gram protein macros.
What's in the Over Easy bar?
Over Easy’s Apple Cinnamon Protein Bar reads like breakfast you can toss in your bag: organic gluten‑free oats, almonds and almond butter, honey, dried apples, and cage‑free egg whites, all warmed up with real cinnamon and a hint of vanilla.
It’s a carb‑forward bar built from whole grains and fruit, with nut fats for staying power and egg‑white protein riding lighter than most gym‑style bars. Sweetness comes from honey and apples—no artificial sweeteners or sugar alcohols—so the apple‑cinnamon flavor is exactly what it sounds like.

Protein
815LOWProtein here leans on cage‑free egg whites—a clean, complete, highly digestible source—with smaller help from oats and almonds. At 8g, it’s on the lighter end for protein bars, better as breakfast fuel or a between‑meal bite than a heavy post‑workout option. No whey or soy in sight, which keeps it dairy‑free but not vegan.
Fat
109MIDMost of the fat comes from almonds and almond butter, so you’re getting predominantly monounsaturated, nut‑based fats rather than processed seed oils. That profile supports satiety and helps steady the ride from the honey and fruit. Egg whites add protein without fat, keeping the fat story squarely nut‑forward.
Carbs
2720HIGHCarbs are led by gluten‑free oats and dried apples—classic ‘clean’ sources that bring fiber (beta‑glucan and pectin) for steadier energy. Honey layers in quick fuel, while a touch of tapioca fiber—a refined, soluble fiber from cassava—adds fiber and keeps the bar soft. It’s on the higher‑carb side for bars, well suited to mornings or pre‑activity.
Sugar
104HIGHThe 10g of sugar comes from honey (an added sugar) and the dried apples, so the sweetness is pantry‑familiar rather than lab‑engineered. There are no artificial sweeteners or sugar alcohols; oats and soluble fiber help soften the blood‑sugar rise compared with dessert‑style bars. Expect a pleasant sweetness balanced by whole grains and nuts.
Calories
220210MIDMost calories come from the oat‑apple‑honey carbs and the nut fats, with protein a smaller slice of the pie. At 220 calories, it sits squarely in the snack‑or‑breakfast zone—enough to bridge a morning, not a full meal replacement. If you want stronger recovery protein, pair it with yogurt or a shake.
Vitamins & Minerals
No single vitamin or mineral clears the 10% Daily Value mark. The modest calcium and iron show up naturally from oats and almonds, with a bit of potassium from the fruit. There’s no fortified vitamin blend here—this bar leans on whole‑food ingredients.
Additives
This is a short‑list, low‑additive bar. Beyond kitchen staples, the only notable engineered ingredient is tapioca fiber—a refined, soluble fiber from cassava used for texture and fiber—plus tiny amounts of vanilla extract and sea salt. If you prefer bars without sugar alcohols and long chemical names, this one keeps it simple.

Range
“I was a big fan of OverEasy Banana Nut bars, but I'm trying to swap to keto to hopefully lose a little more weight (down 20lbs, need another 20), however, it seems almost all the keto bars are dessert flavors, and that's not really what I want for my breakfast.”
Main Praise
Taste and texture lead the love. Bon Appétit called Over Easy one of the rare bars that actually tastes like homemade baked oatmeal—soft, chewy, lightly spiced, and just sweet enough—which mirrors a lot of everyday feedback.
Amazon reviewers repeatedly highlight the simple ingredient list and the fact that it feels like “real food,” not a disguised candy bar. The Apple Cinnamon flavor, in particular, gets kudos for being cozy and familiar without veering into cloying.
Several fans use it as breakfast or crumble it over yogurt, which tells you it’s comfortable in the morning routine. And the absence of sugar alcohols means no weird aftertaste for folks sensitive to that.
Main Criticism
If you’re expecting a heavy hitter on protein, 8g may underwhelm; this is more breakfast bar than post‑lift recovery. Texture divides people: what reads as soft‑chewy to some feels a little “gravelly” or dense to others, especially if they were hoping for candy‑bar smooth.
A couple of reviewers flat‑out disliked the flavor, calling it bitter or off, which likely speaks to preferences around oats and cinnamon more than a universal flaw. And if you’re low‑carb or keto, the oat‑and‑honey formula simply isn’t aligned with your goals.
One outlet flagged a different Over Easy flavor for higher saturated fat and very high fiber; that critique doesn’t map cleanly to Apple Cinnamon, which leans on almond‑based fats, but it’s worth noting that this line aims for a fiber‑forward breakfast feel.
The Middle Ground
So where does the truth land? Right in the name: Over Easy is breakfast in bar form.
The Apple Cinnamon sticks to kitchen‑familiar ingredients, uses egg whites for clean protein, and keeps sweetness grounded in honey and fruit—more pantry than lab. That makes it a smart choice for a morning commute, pre‑walk, or mid‑meeting bridge, especially if you prefer bars without sugar alcohols.
The trade‑off is intentional: 27g of carbs and 10g of sugar mean it’s not a keto play, and 8g of protein won’t replace a shake after heavy training. Texture gripes (“a bit like gravel”) are essentially a reminder that oats have texture—if you don’t enjoy oatmeal, you probably won’t love oatmeal‑in‑a‑bar.
Meanwhile, praise from food editors and many buyers converges on the same point: it tastes like actual food and behaves like it, too.
What's the bottom line?
Over Easy Apple Cinnamon is the portable version of the breakfast you meant to make—oats, apples, almonds, honey, and egg‑white protein wrapped in warm cinnamon. It’s gluten‑free, dairy‑free (not vegan), and steers clear of sugar alcohols and long, synthetic ingredient lists. The macros (220 calories, 8g protein, 10g fat, 27g carbs, 10g sugar) skew toward sustained morning energy rather than gym‑bro bragging rights.
Choose it when you want real‑food convenience and a cozy, oatmeal‑like flavor without artificial sweeteners. Skip it if you’re keto, need a very high‑protein bar, or want a candy‑bar texture.
If you’re using it post‑workout, pair it with a protein‑rich side (Greek yogurt, a shake, or even an extra egg) to round things out. For everyone else, it’s a friendly, honest breakfast bar that does exactly what it promises: keep mornings simple—and tasty.
