WHOLE GRAIN ENERGY BAR

A friend of mine gave me an energy bar from Harvest Bread Company. It tasted great, but it was also $2. I didn't want to pay that kind of money so I kept playing around with the ingredients until I came up with something similar.

Time 10m

Yield 24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 cup honey
1/2 cup mini chocolate chip
1/4 cup puffed millet
1/2 cup wheat germ
1/2 cup Puffed Kashi
1 cup oatmeal
1 cup natural-style peanut butter
1 cup raisins or 1 cup craisins

Steps:

  • Mix everything but the raisins and chocolate chips together. Use a food processor if you can because it makes it a lot easier.
  • Then add in the chocolate chips and raisins.
  • Form into bars and refrigerate for about an hour allowing them to harden.
  • I suppose you could freeze them and eat as needed, but they never last that long around here.
  • You can also increase the honey if you want something a little sweeter. I try to cut back on my sugar as much as I can in my food.
