halfways healthy granola/snack bar recipe?

post #1 of 2
Thread Starter 
I've been eating Odwalla or Cascadian Farms (sp?) bars occasionally went I want something quick, easy, and appetizing (dealing with morning sickness). Neither are all that great though better than the mainstream bars I guess, and I've been wondering if maybe I could make my own granola or snack bar that would keep well but but a little bit healthier. Anyone have a good recipe or link?

Mix:

2 cups of thick rolled oats with
1/2 cup each of almonds, sunflower seeds, coconut flakes, cashews (or any other nut)
1/4 cup of sesame seeds
1/4 cup melted coconut oil
1/2 cup delicious local honey

Spread on a baking sheet and bake for about 20-30 minutes at 350.

Take out of oven and mix in dried cranberries/raisins/other dried fruit to taste.

If you want bars then press into a clean parchment paper covered baking sheet while still warm. Cut into bars while warm too... Let cool. MMmmmm
