I've been on the look out for a good, soft, homemade granola bar. These are, by far, the best that I've tried.
This is the original recipe Trail Mix Cookies.
The recipe below includes the changes that I made to the recipe.
2 medium sized bananas, mashed
1/4 cup agave nectar
1/4 cup molasses
1/4 cup maple syrup
1 tablespoon corn starch (I used 1 tablespoon egg replacer)
1/4 cup water
1/2 cup applesauce
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup whole wheat flour
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon cloves
3 cups quick oats
generous handful raisins, craisins, currents, apricots, prunes or chocolate chips
generous handful walnuts, pecans, sunflower seeds, almonds, chopped (your choice)
Directions:
1.T
Heat oven to 375 degrees F. Mix thoroughly bananas, maple syrup, molasses, agave, applesauce, and vanilla. Combine corn starch and water add to banana mixture. Stir in remaining
ingredients, leaving the oats and fruit/nuts until the end.
2.
Lightly spray cookie sheet with nonstick vegetable spray or line with parchment paper. Form dough into
balls, and flatten and shape into large, round cookies. Or press dough into a 9x13 pan for bars.
3. Bake for 12-15 minutes, until bottoms are lightly browned. Cool, and enjoy!
