Apple Walnut Breakfast Bars image

Easy and delicious breakfast bar (healthy too!). They are no-bake. I usually use Raisin Bran or Bran Flakes for the cereal part, but Corn flakes, cheerios, or even rice krispies would be great. From BHG.

Time 17m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 cup dried apple, snipped
1/3 cup honey
1/4 cup raisins
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1/3 cup peanut butter
1/4 cup apple butter (I've used honey as a substitute)
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 cup rolled oats
1/2 cup chopped walnuts or 1/2 cup pecans
1/3 cup toasted wheat germ
1/4 cup roasted sunflower seeds
2 cups corn flakes or 2 cups bran flakes

Steps:

  • In a Dutch oven combine dried apples, honey, raisins, and brown sugar.
  • Heat and stir until mixture boils; reduce heat slightly.
  • Cook, uncovered, for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
  • Remove from heat.
  • Stir in peanut butter until melted.
  • Stir in apple butter and cinnamon.
  • Stir in rolled oats, walnuts, wheat germ, and sunflower seeds until well combined.
  • Add cereal, stirring to coat.
  • Press mixture very firmly (or bars will crumble) and evenly into an ungreased 8x8x2-inch pan.
  • Chill to set.
  • Cut into 8 bars.
  • Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator up to 2 days.

Tips:

  • Use ripe apples for the best flavor and texture.
  • If you don't have rolled oats, you can use quick oats, but they will make the bars a little softer.
  • Be sure to press the oat mixture firmly into the pan so that the bars hold together well.
  • If you want a chewier bar, you can bake them for 10-15 minutes at 350 degrees Fahrenheit before refrigerating.
  • These bars are best when eaten within a few days of making them.

Conclusion:

No-bake apple breakfast bars are a delicious and easy way to start your day. They're packed with healthy ingredients like oats, apples, and nuts, and they're a good source of fiber, protein, and vitamins. Plus, they're naturally gluten-free and vegan.
