Granola Bar Recipe

This delicious granola bar recipe was provided by Leo Storrier. She brought them as a snack to this weekend’s winter camp. Thanks Leo!

Granola Bars

Ingredients:
3 cups rolled oats (not instant)
1 cup Flaked Alomond
1 cup coconut *
1 cup raisons
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips **
11 oz. can of sweetened condensed milk
¼ cup butter or hard margarine – melted

1. Turn oven to 325 degrees.
2. Grease baking sheet (rectangular bar pan for ex.) - I prefer to use parchment paper.
3. Combine ingredients in bowl and mix well.
4. Press down into baking sheet – about 1 cm thick. You can use wax paper to press down since it’s sticky.
5. Bake on centre rack for about 25 – 30 minutes until golden.
6. Remove, cool for 15 minutes. Cut into desired sized bars or squares before cool. I prefer mine in smaller squares because they have serious energy!

*Can replace with sunflower seeds.
**Could try cranberries, too.
