Categories     Breakfast

Time 1h15m

Yield 10 bars, 5 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups quinoa (flakes)
1/4 cup maple syrup
2 teaspoons vanilla or 2 teaspoons almond extract
1/2 cup maple sugar
2 tablespoons melted butter
2 large egg whites, lightly beaten
1/4 cup chopped dates or 1/4 cup chopped apricot
3 teaspoons cinnamon

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 250 degrees.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the ingredients, except cinnamon, in the order listed and mix well.
  • Place mixture in a 8 or 9 inch greased baking pan and press flat using the back of a fork or slightly moistened finger tips.
  • Sprinkle the top with cinnamon.
  • Bake 45 minutes.
  • Remove pan from oven and cut into bars.
  • Return pan to oven for 10 minutes until bars become crisp.
  • Remove from oven and let cool on a wire rack.
  • Notes: Recipe can be tripled using a jelly roll pan (11X17). Bars freeze well. Granulated maple sugar is 100% maple syrup that has been cooked at a higher temperature. I have subbed with brown sugar in a pinch.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my granola bars turned out too crumbly. I'm not sure what went wrong.

I found these granola bars to be a bit dry. I think they would be better with a little more honey or syrup.
