Things You'll Need:
- oatmeal
- ground flax seed
- sunflower seeds or sliced almonds
- raisins or dried cranberries
- honey
- cinnamon
- dried coconut
- chocolate chips or carob chips
- unsweetened applesauce
-
Step 1
In an kitchen mixer, or by hand in a large bowl add 2 cups oatmeal, 1/2 cup ground flax seed, 1 tsp cinnamon, raisins or dried cranberries as desired, chocolate chips as desired, sunflower seeds or almonds as desired, and 1/2 cup dried coconut. Mix together and then add 2 cups
of applesauce and 1/2 cup honey. Mix well. The consistency should be soft, but not sloppy, but not hard and lumpy either. So add more oatmeal or applesauce depending on what you need to achieve -
Step 2
Heat oven to 350 degrees. Spray cooking sheet with baking spray and start packing your bar mix on the tray. Don't make it too think, because you want it to cook thoroughly. The thickness of your fingernail, (normal not acrylic), should be about right. Bake for about 20 minutes, or until slightly golden and crispy.

Step 3
Take out of oven and cut into bars while hot. Let sit until cool and then store bars in air tight container or ziplock bag and enjoy! NOTE: It is important to let the bars cool off and dry thoroughly before storing them in an airtight bag. If you put them in an airight bag while moist, they will not become firm bars, they will be too soft.
