Mix-in options, to equal 2 cups:
1/2 cup raisins (or any other dried fruit)

Tips
These are great to take in the car and eat on the run.
Directions
Mix the syrup and peanut butter together in a large bowl. Mix the dry ingredients separately, then add them to the syrup mixture. Gradually add mix-ins and water (I use a cup). Mixture should be slightly sticky.
Pour into 9 x 13 Pyrex baking dish greased with coconut or other oil. Bake in 350 oven just until browned - about 12-15 minutes. Don't overcook!
