Alison modified a recipe from somewhere to made these super nummy energy bars. They can be peanut, egg, corn, almond, and milk free! So they are safe (and tasty) for Jeff, Jen, and me all at once!
Stuff to put in
- 1 1/3 cup flour
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1 cup peanut butter - Or any other nut butter, or even no-nut pea butter
- 1/2 cup butter
- 1 egg
- 2 tbsp honey
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp vanilla
These ingredients can be replaced with anything as long as you keep the quantities the same. Ie you can do all fruit...or all cereals...or even 7 kinds of chocolate technically.
- 1 1/2 cup rolled oats
- 1 1/2 cup crispy cereal - Rice Crispies, Cheerios, etc
- 1 cup coconut
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- 1 cup dried berries/fruit
- 1/4 cup sunflower seeds - Or any other seed
- 1/4 cup pumpkin seeds - Or any other seed
