Ingredients
1 cup Dried fruit (apples and cranberries used for analysis) 1 cup Dry roasted nuts (pecans, walnuts or almonds) 1/2 tsp Cinnamon 1/4 cup Flax flour 1/3 cup Warm water 1 tsp Vanilla 1/4 cup Honey
1/3 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
1. Preheat oven to 350 F (175 C). Spray an 8 x 8 inch baking pan with oil and set aside. 2. Place the dried fruit, nuts, cinnamon and salt in a food processor and pulse until finely chopped (the dried fruit should be the size of a pea). 3. Transfer fruit and nut mixture to a large bowl. Add the oats and mix together. 4. In a small bowl, combine the flax flour with the warm water. Let sit for a few minutes. Whisk in the vanilla and honey. 5. Add the wet ingredients to the oatmeal mixture and stir until well combined. Stir in the chocolate chips. 6. Place in a baking pan and press down with a spatula. Bake for 18 to 20 minutes. The edges should be golden brown. Let the bars cool before removing them from the pan. Cut 3 x 7 to make 21 bars. Store in an air tight container.
