Ingredients

Cost per serving $0.15 view details
  • 1 ¼ cups oatmeal (I only had brown sugar flavored high fiber oatmeal – which probably ended up giving it a lot of extra flavor)
  • ¾ cup puffed rice (like Rice Krispies!)
  • 1 cup of Nature’s Path Organic Pumpkin granola
  • 2 tablespoons ground flax-seed (optional)
  • ½ cup Agave nectar
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • ¼ cup dark chocolate chips, melted
  • 1 tablespoon of your favorite nut butter

Directions

  1. 1. Combine all dry ingredients, except chocolate, in a large bowl. Mix well.
  2. 2. In a separate (microwave safe) bowl, mix together the wet ingredients, then microwave them for about 20 to 30 seconds. This will make it easier to mix and add to the dry ingredients since it can get really sticky!
  3. 3. Pour wet ingredients into dry and mix well. Keep mixing until the ingredients are as well-distributed as possible.
  4. 4. Put the mixture into a shallow pan and flatten it down. Refrigerate for an hour or so and then cut into 9 bars. (or as many as you’d like!) Keep refrigerated at all times! They get a bit sticky if left at room temperature for too long!
