2 C uncooked instant oatmeal
1 C homemade Almond Meal
1 C dried fruit of choice (ex: raisins, chopped medjool dates, chopped prunes, etc)
1/4 C coconut sugar
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 C total seeds and/or chopped/sliced nuts of choice
1/4 C raw honey
1/4 C peanut butter
1/2 C water
1 egg white
Supplies:
Medium bowl
Wooden spoon or sturdy spatula
9x13 baking pan
Yield: 8-12 bars
Preheat oven to 350F. Grease pan or line with parchment paper. Combine all dry ingredients (including fruit) and mix well. Combine honey and peanut butter in one microwave safe measuring cup. Microwave in 10-20 second increments till peanut butter stirs easily. Add water to the same cup, stir, then add to dry mixture, stirring well. Add egg white and stir until well combined. Mixture should form a sticky ball, well held together but not too wet (think Rice Krispies treats). Spread evenly in pan pressing down.
Bake about 15 minutes or until center is firm. Remove from oven, cut into bars, but do not remove from pan until fully cooled.
The oatmeal makes this non-Paleo, but certainly cleaner than store bought granola or breakfast bars.
