Quick Fruit & Nut Bars
We all have those days where by the time you look up, it’s way past noon and you’re not really sure where the rest of the day went. Today I have an easy recipe for protein packed fruit and nut bars that make an awesome sweet treat when you need a quick snack to keep you go-go-going!
Here's what you'll need to get started:
- 2 cups Old-fashioned oats
- 1 cup sliced almonds
- 1 cup shredded coconut
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2/3 cup honey
- ¼ cup light brown sugar
- 1 ½ cups chopped dried fruits *I’ve used apricots & cranberries today, but this varies with my mood. Get crazy! Try pineapple, mango, blueberry, apple, anything you like!*
- Large mixing bowl & spoon
- 9 x 12 baking pan
- Cutting board & sharp knife
- Parchment paper
Lets get started!
- Heat the oven to 350 degrees
- Line your 9 x 12 baking pan with parchment paper
4. When the oven is ready, toast up your oat, and nuts mix for about 10 minutes to get a little extra flavour and a bit of crunch.
