Granola Bars (Greb) Recipe
Recipe Ingredients
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup light corn syrup
1/2 cup melted margarine
2/3 cup peanut butter
2 tsp vanilla extract
3 cup quick oats *
1/2 cup sunflower seeds
1/2 cup coconut
1/3 cup wheat germ
1/2 cup raisins
1 cup carob chips
1 other nuts/dried fruits you want to, add
Recipe Preparation
*Note: (I substitute half quick oats and half crisped rice)
Preheat the oven to 350 F. Grease the bottom of a 9x12 (9x13?)
baking dish (glass works best). In a large bowl, combine the first 5
ingredients and stir well (it should be sort of a paste). Stir in
remaining ingredients. You can add in whatever you want, so long as
the mixture is sticking together in several large clumps. Press the
mixture into the baking pan ( you can use your fingers -- it's not
very sticky). Bake at 350 for 15 - 20 minutes (until it turns golden
brown). Cool completely and cut into bars. Voila!
