Almond Granola Bars from Healthy Diabetic Recipes

Almond Granola Bars Recipe

Recipe Ingredients:

1 1/2 cup Rolled oats
1/4 cup Oat bran
1/4 cup Finely chopped almonds
1/2 tsp Ground cinnamon
2 tbsp Vegetable oil plus
1 tsp Vegetable oil
1/3 cup Honey
1/2 tsp Vanilla extract
1/4 tsp Almond extract

Recipe Instructions:

Preheat oven to 350 F. Spray a baking sheet with non-stick spray.

Combine dry ingredients in a large bowl. Combine remaining
ingredients and add to dry mixture. Mix until all ingredients are
moistened.

Press mixture into a rectangular shape 7 inches wide and nine inches
long. (Wet hands or use one hand and a damp spoon.)

Bake about 12 minutes. Remove from oven and cut into 16 bars using a
sharp knife. Separate bars slightly and return to oven for 3 to 5
minutes more. The browner the bottom of the bars, the crisper they
will be when cool.

The edges will crumble slightly when cut - set aside for a snack.
Remove to a wire rack to cool.

“That's something I've noticed about food: whenever there's a crisis if you can get people to eating normally things get better.”

~ Madeleine L'Engle (1918--) American author.
