Tropical Granola Bars

Ingredients:

shortening confectionery, coconut (hydrogenated) and or palm kernel (hydrogenated)
nuts, almonds

papayas, raw
pineapple, raw, all varieties

salt, table
shortening confectionery, coconut (hydrogenated) and or palm kernel (hydrogenated)
honey

Directions:
Mix dry ingredients and then add wet ingredients.
Be sure that you mix everything thoroughly.
You can use your hands for this if you want.
Press (firmly) into a greased jelly roll pan.
Bake at 350 degrees for 15-18 minutes.
Cut into pieces as soon as you take them out of the oven.
A pizza cutter works well for this step.
Cool and wrap.
May be frozen.
I wrap each piece in wax paper and then freeze them in a ziplock bag.
Note: If you can't find almond flour, you can use your blender or food processor to finely grind almonds and get a similar product.
All the flours are interchangeable, so use what you like or have on hand.
The mixture I have here does not destroy the tropical flavors, but feel free to experiment.
The flours are just a binder that add nutrients.
