Healthy Granola Bars
Granola on the go!
Makes: 12 Bars servings
Time: 40 Minutes
Ingredients
- 2 Cups Old Fashioned Rolled Oats
- 1/2 Cup Organic Brown Sugar
- 1/2 Cup Milled Golden Flax Seed
- 1 Teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
- 1 Cup Whole Wheat Flour
- 1 Cup Raisins or Dried Cranberries
- 3/4 Teaspoon Salt
- 1/2 Cup Honey
- 1 Egg,beaten
- 1/2 Cup Apple Sauce or Blueberry Apple Sauce
- 1/2 Cup Olive Oil or Coconut Oil (liquid form)
- 2 Teaspoons Vanilla Extract
- Non-Stick Cooking Spray
Directions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Generously grease a glass 9×13 inch
baking pan with non-stick cooking spray. In a large bowl, mix together the
oats, brown sugar, wheat germ, cinnamon, flour, raisins and salt. Make a well
in the center, and pour in the honey, egg, applesauce, oil and vanilla. Mix
well. Pat the mixture evenly into the prepared pan.
Bake for 20-30 minutes in the preheated oven, just until the bars begin to turn
golden at the edges. Remove from oven as soon as they begin to brown
around the edges. Cool for 5 minutes, then cut into bars while still warm. Do
not allow the bars to cool completely before cutting, or they will be too hard to
cut.
