Most mornings I make a good breakfast, but for the times I would rather sleep in (who wouldn't!?), this is my go to recipe. They also come in handy for pre-lunch and dinner snacks too. Listed is my regular mix, but tweak it to what you like, since, well, your the one eating them. Try shredded coconut, flax seeds, peanut butter....chocolate also tastes great, but don't go too crazy, since they are supposed to be a healthy snack! haha.
What You Need:
2 Cups Rolled Oats
2 Cups Rice Crispies (If your out of cereal, replace with two more cups of Oats)
1 Cup Flour
1 1/2 Tsp Vanilla
2/3 Cup Butter or Margarine, Soft
3/4 Cup Honey (Roommate Tip: Try half or all Maple Syrup)
1/3 Cup Brown Sugar
A mixture of Almonds, Walnuts, Dried Cranberries, Raisins, and Sunflower Seeds.1 Tsp each Ginger, and Cinnamon
What To Do:
1. Preheat oven to 325. Grease the bottom of a baking pan, going up the sides.
2. Mix all ingredients except spices and additions. Gently stir in the rest. Transfer to pan and press down with spatula.
3. Bake for about 18 minutes, or until golden brown along the edges. Press down again with the spatula so when you cut it, it doesn't crumble. Let cool and cut into squares.
