Introduction

I got this recipe out of a magazine, but am not sure which one. The original recipe called for regular peanut butter, but I used "Better 'n' Peanut Butter" to reduce the peanut butter calories in half.

Ingredients

    3 c. oats
    1/2 c. dry-roasted peanuts
    1/2 c. sweetened flaked coconut
    3 T. sesame seeds
    1/2 c. Better 'n' Peanut Butter
    1/2 c. firmly packed brown sugar
    1/4 c. butter
    1 T. dark corn syrup
    1/4 t. salt

Directions

1) Preheat oven to 350.

2) Toss together 3 c. uncooked regular oats, 1/2 c. dry-roasted peanuts, 1/2 c. sweetened coconut flakes, and 3 T. sesame seeds in a large bowl.

3) Cook 1/2 c. creamy Better 'n' Peanut Butter, 1/2 c. firmly packed brown sugar, 1/4 c. butter, 1 T. dark corn syrup, and 1/4 t. salt in a small saucepan over medium heat for 3 minutes or until smooth.

4) Stir Better 'n' Peanut Butter mixture into oat mixture until blended. Spread it in a single layer on a lightly greased (or parchment lined) jelly-roll pan.

5) Bake 20 minutes or until lightly golden, stirring after 10 min. If baked without parchment paper, when done cool on waxed paper. Cool completely -- about 20 min. Serve with vanilla yogurt and sliced bananas. Makes 12 half-cup servings
