Homemade Granola Bars
Ingredients:
oats
nuts, almonds
shortening confectionery, coconut (hydrogenated) and or palm kernel (hydrogenated)
wheat germ, crude
butter, without salt
honey
sugars, brown
vanilla extract
salt, table
dates, deglet noor
apricots, dried, sulfured, uncooked
cranberries, dried, sweetened
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter an 8 by 12 inch baking dish and line it with parchment paper.
Toss the oatmeal, almonds, and coconut together on a sheet pan and bake for 10 to 12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned.
Transfer the mixture to a large mixing bowl and stir in the wheat germ.
Reduce the oven temperature to 300 degrees F.
Place the butter, honey, brown sugar, vanilla and salt in a small saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat.
Cook and stir for a minute, then pour over the toasted oatmeal mixture.
Add the dates, apricots and cranberries and stir well.
Pour the mixture into the prepared pan.
Wet your fingers and lightly press the mixture evenly into the pan.
Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, until light golden brown.
Cool for at least 2 to 3 hours before cutting into 2" squares.
Serve at room temperature.
If you eat the granola bars immediately after cutting, they will be very crunchy.
Store them in an air tight container and they will soften a lot over the next 3 days.
I think they taste better too.
