directions

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Mix all the dry ingredients (except for the raisins and almonds) in a large bowl. Mix all the wet ingredients together in a separate bowl.
  • Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix well. Consistency is sort of like cookie dough. Add the raisins and almonds, and mix well.
  • Spread into a 9X12 baking dish.
  • Bake for roughly 20 minutes, until edges are crisp and browned.

  1. My modifications:<br/><br/>* Honey instead of maple syrup.<br/>* 1 cup of So Delicious Coconut Yogurt instead of milk and powdered milk. <br/>* Hemp protein powder.<br/>* 2 Tbsp cinnamon.<br/>* 1 egg yolk.<br/>* 1 packet Stevia<br/><br/>My result: a very chewy, very moist bar with only a nutty hint of the hemp protein powder (I was worried it would make the bar bitter, but it didn't). Perfect sweetness. The yogurt added just a slight tang that I really enjoy.<br/><br/>My only complaint is the lack of fat -- I need more fat for satiety and long-term energy (otherwise I overeat carbs and think about food all day). I'm going to make these again but with 3 whole eggs and perhaps also more fruit (e.g. dates and dried apricots).
