Almond-Honey Power Bar



Ingredients

1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats

1/2 of 1/4 cup slivered almonds

1/2 of 1/4 cup walnuts

1/4 cup sunflower seeds

2 tablespoon flaxseeds, preferably golden

1 cup unsweetened whole-grain puffed cereal (I used crispex)

1/3 cup currants

1/3 cup chopped dried apricots

1/3 cup chopped golden raisins

1/4 cup creamy almond butter (see Note)

-1/4 cup brown sugar (see Note)

-1/4 cup honey

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/8 teaspoon salt

Chocolate chips


Preparation


Preheat oven to 350°F. Coat an 8-inch-square pan with cooking spray.

Spread oats, almonds, sunflower seeds, flaxseeds and sesame seeds on a large, rimmed baking sheet.

Bake until the oats are lightly toasted and the nuts are fragrant, shaking the pan halfway through, about 10 minutes.

Transfer to a large bowl. Add cereal, currants, apricots and raisins; toss to combine.

Combine almond butter, sugar, honey, vanilla and salt in a small saucepan. Heat over medium-low, stirring frequently, until the mixture bubbles lightly, 2 to 5 minutes.

Immediately pour the almond butter mixture over the dry ingredients and mix with a spoon or spatula until no dry spots remain.

Transfer to the prepared pan. Lightly coat your hands with cooking spray and press the mixture down firmly to make an even layer (wait until the mixture cools slightly if necessary).

Refrigerate until firm, about 30 minutes; cut into 8 bars.

Tips & Notes

  • Ingredient notes: For this recipe, we like unsweetened puffed multi-grain cereal, such as Kashi’s 7 Whole Grain Puffs.
  • Turbinado sugar is steam-cleaned raw cane sugar. It’s coarse-grained and light brown in color, with a slight molasses flavor. Find it in the natural-foods section of large supermarkets or at natural-foods stores.
