Introduction
This is my official recipe for homemade Larabars. These have more stuff in them, including oatmeal for more fiber. These have no added sugar or salt. If you made them with raw peanuts, I believe you could call these a "raw" food bar. But don't be scared! These are very tasty and a great snack. This is my official recipe for homemade Larabars.
