My friend Meghan introduced me to this recipe. I made them a couple days ago and they are so yummy! They taste like a dessert and I love that they use oatmeal, wheat germ and whole wheat flour.
INGREDIENTS
2 cups rolled oats
1/2cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup wheat germ
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 cup whole wheat flour
1 cup raisins (I did 1/2 cup raisins 1/2 cup chocolate chips)
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup honey
1 egg, beaten
1/2 cup canola oil
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
DIRECTIONS
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Generously grease a 9x13 inch baking pan.
In a large bowl, mix together the oats, brown sugar, wheat germ, cinnamon, flour, raisins and salt. Make a well in the center, and pour in the honey, egg, oil and vanilla. Mix well using your hands. Pat the mixture evenly into the prepared pan.
Bake for 18-20 minutes in the preheated oven, until the bars begin to turn golden at the edges. Cool for 5 minutes, then cut into bars while still warm. Do not allow the bars to cool completely before cutting, or they will be too hard to cut.
