EatingWell Energy Bars

Amazing definatly worth a try!! I added more pumpkin and sunflower seeds! i also put in slivered almonds and chopped them a bit, and also put coconut, which tasted amazing! Totally going to make these again, they are great for pre and post workouts as im a rower so need the energy! Love much try them out! Pros: Easy, taste great and you know what ingrdients are in it so you have all the power to create. Cons: absouetly none

Delicious! The first time I made this as written. They were good. The second time, I tried subbing honey for the corn syrup - it didn't hold the bars together well at all, but still tasted yummy. The third time, I nailed it! Here's what I did: 1/2 cup slivered almonds 1/2 cup rolled oats 1/2 cup puffed rice 1/3 cup raw pumpkin seeds 1/4 cup dried cranberries 6 dried apricots, diced 3 T. mini chocolate chips 4 T. light corn syrup 2 T. almond butter Combine the dry ingredients. Melt the almond butter in the microwave (peanut butter would work too, but we have an allergy, hence the slivered almonds instead of peanuts) and pour over the mixture along with the corn syrup. Cook as in the original recipe. I cut it into 14 bars and they were GREAT! Pros: Healthy, delicious, I control the ingredients
