Yield 30-35 bars, 30-35 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 cups old fashioned oats

3/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup wheat germ
1 cup mixed nuts (chopped, I use walnuts and almonds)
3/4 cup craisins

2 tablespoons vanilla extract
1/2 cup honey
4 -5 tablespoons honey (drizzle on top)
1/2 cup oil
1 egg

Steps:

  • preheat oven to 350 degrees and cover a 13x9in. glass pan with non-stick spray
  • mix all dry ingredients in a large bowl.
  • mix all wet ingredients in a separate bowl.
  • after they are both thoroughly mixed add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients.
  • pour into the glass pan and bake for 25-30 minutes.
  • let cool for about 2-3 minutes.
  • the mixture will still be very hot, but drizzle honey all over the mix (this keeps
  • them very moist).
  • let cool for another 5 minutes and cut the bars with caution and awareness that the pan will still be a little hot.
  • eat to your hearts content!
