Cereal Bars ~Martha 8.30.10
I've told a few of you about this recipe. It reminds me of a healthy version of rice crispies. You must keep these frozen because once they reach room temperature, they begin to fall apart.
Cereal Bars
2 C puffed wheat or rice
1/3 C ground almonds or walnuts
2 TBS ground flaxseed
1C vanilla whey protein powder
1/3 C dried fruit (cranberries, blueberries or raisins)
1/3 C pure maple syrup
1 TBS coconut oil
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 TBS Naturally More Peanut Butter
In a bowl, combine dry ingredients. Set aside.
In a pot, combine syrup and coconut oil. Heat to a simmer only. Add vanilla extract and peanut butter and remove from heat. Stir with a fork to blend ingredients.
Add liquid mixture to cereal mixture and mix with a spoon.
Press evenly into an oiled 8x8 pan. Let cool in the fridge until solid. Cut into 8 squares. Wrap individually and keep frozen for best results.
