Introduction

Healthy Grab and Go Bar Healthy Grab and Go Bar
Number of Servings: 16

Ingredients

    *Whole Wheat Flour, 1 cup
    Oats, 1 cup
    Wheat germ, crude, 1 cup
    **Flax Seed Meal (ground flax), 6 tbsp
    Coconut, raw, 1 cup, shredded
    Dates, 1 cup, pitted, chopped
    Apricots, dried, 1 cup, halves
    Sunsweet, Dried Cranberries, 1.5 oz, 1 serving
    Applesauce, unsweetened, 1 cup
    *Soy milk, Soy Milk, Natural, 1 serving
    *EAS Advant Edge Protein Powder, 12 tbsp
    Coconut Oil, 2 tbsp
    Black Pepper, 1/2 tsp

Directions

Oven to 350 degrees.
13x9 glass pan.
Mix all dry ingredients.
Put all dry fruit into a chopper and chop very finely.
Add in your wet ingredients. The amount of soy milk you can adjust to make it just moist enough. You want it to be a crumbly cookie dough texture. Where you can form them easily.
I adjust the protien powder as well. I do not use EAS but it was on the list.
When all ingredients are mixed well push them into a 13x9 glass pan. Form the mixture into the pan very well. Squish it down. Bake until slightly toasted on top and sides. Cut when cooled. Keep in a cool place. These are a quick snack on the go. No added sweetner and low in fat. High in fiber!

    Good
    I will try these but use CINNAMON instead of black pepper which seems like an odd choice, and soy protein powder. I'm not sure if I can find coconut oil locally so I'm betting any oil will work. Is 1 serving of soy milk = 1 cup? Also how well do these keep - can they be frozen I hope? - 7/13/09
