Ingredients
1.5 cups rolled oats
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
1/2 cup dried fruit (I used a mix of blueberries, cranberries and raisins)
1 tbsp sesame seeds (1/4 cup seeds)
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp salt
1/4 cup chocolate chips (optional)
1.25 cups fat free milk
2 egg whites
1 tsp vanilla
2 tbsp honey (optional)
Method
Preheat oven to 350F.
Combine dry ingredients together. Take oats in a bowl.
Add walnuts.
Add dry fruits.
Add sesame seeds.
Add cinnamon and salt.
Add chocolate chips.
Mix well and keep aside.
Get the wet ingredients together next. Mix milk and egg whites.
Add vanilla.
Add honey.
Whisk it together.
Pour mixture in a parchment paper lined 9 x 9 baking pan. After one bad episode of things sticking to the parchment paper, I now spray the parchment paper also.
Bake in a 350F preheated oven for 40 minutes. Remove and cut using a pizza cutter or knife into pieces.
Healthy granola bars ready. These bars are not too sweet and we loved it.
Enjoy!
