  • Recipe: Oat Cereal Bars

    Mama Foxby Mama Fox

    recipeI made these last night and they are SO good! I have to stock up on oatmeal so I can make these all the time.

    Ingredients:
    • 1/2 cup white sugar
    • 1/2 cup honey
    • 1/2 cup peanut butter
    • 3 cups toasted oat cereal
    • 1 cup peanuts (optional)

    Directions:

    • Grease a 9x13 inch pan.
    • In a large saucepan over medium heat, stir together the sugar and honey.
    • Bring to a boil, shimmer for 3 minutes, then remove from heat.
    • Stir in the peanut butter until well blended.
    • Stir in the cereal and if desired, stir in the salted peanuts.
    • Press into the prepared pan. Allow to cool until firm, then cut into bars.

    Oh my yummy chewy goodness. I added about a teaspoon of cinnamon when I mixed in the peanut butter. Since Papa Fox doesn't like nuts, I didn't add any. Next time, I'm going to try it with dried cranberries. If Fox2 didn't have an intolerance to grapes, raisins would be good. Just tinker around with adding things until you find what you like. I saw one suggestion that added crushed graham crackers.

    What else would you add to this recipe?
