Whole Grain Energy Bars Recipes

WHOLE GRAIN ENERGY BAR

Steps:

• Mix everything but the raisins and chocolate chips together. Use a food processor if you can because it makes it a lot easier.
• Then add in the chocolate chips and raisins.
• Form into bars and refrigerate for about an hour allowing them to harden.
• I suppose you could freeze them and eat as needed, but they never last that long around here.
• You can also increase the honey if you want something a little sweeter. I try to cut back on my sugar as much as I can in my food.
