 Healthy Granola Bars
2 1/2 cups rolled oats (I've upped it to 2 1/2 cups for another batch and they turned out great)
1/3 cup wheat germ (I probably used 1/3 cup)
1/3 cup ground flax (I probably used 1/3 cup)
2 tbsp ground cinnamon
1 1/4 cup whole wheat flour (or spelt flour)Granola Bars
1 cup raisins
1/2 cup chopped dried apricots
1/2 cup walnuts
3/4 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 cup honey
1 egg, beaten
1/2 cup canola oil
1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease 9 x 13 baking pan.
2. In large bowl, mix together the oats, wheat germ, flax, cinnamon, flour, fruit/nuts and salt. Make a well in the centre, pour in the honey, egg, oil. Mix well. Pat the mixture evenly into the pan.
3. Bake for about 30 minutes (I found 25 made them nice and soft on the inside but crunchy around the sides of the pan), but watch the baking time. If you leave them in too long they'll be dry. Cool for 5 minutes, then cut into bars or squares. Do not allow the bars to cool completely before cutting or they will be too hard to cut.
