Chewy Granola Bar
Cooking Instructions:
- 1 ½ cups raw almonds
- ¼ cup sesame seeds
- 1 ½ cups oats, quick-cooking
- ½ cup dried cranberries
- 1 cup dried blueberries (or a mix of other dried fruit)
- 1/3 cup Sweet Dreams Rice Syrup
- 1/3 cup maple syrup
- 1 tsp cinnamon
Heat the oven to 275*F. Lightly grease a 9-inch or 7 x 11-inch baking pan with oil. Grind the almonds in a food processor until they resemble a coarse meal. Combine the ground almonds and the remaining ingredients in a large bowl and stir well. Using wet fingers press the mixture into the prepared pan and bake it for 1 hour. Allow the bars to cool thoroughly while they are still in the pan before cutting. Makes about 20 bars.
