Homemade Honey Granola Bars

Jack's traveling for Meadow Farm, today, and I'm just giddy trying to decide how to spend my day. No interruptions. I'm going to try to figure out a new photo editing software program that I've just loaded. I'm going to read a whole bunch of my favorite blogs. I'm going to take a walk because it's a gorgeous day.

But first I'm going to make a loaf of bread in my bread machine and then I'm going to make a batch of Homemade Honey Granola Bars. And, Honey, these are Goooood!

HOMEMADE HONEY GRANOLA BARS

1 cup granola
1 cup quick-cooking rolled oats
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup flaked coconut
1/2 cup chopped almonds
1/2 cup raisins
1/3 cup toasted wheat germ
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
1 slightly beaten egg
1/2 cup honey
1/4 cup butter or margarine, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla

In a large bowl combine granola, oats, flour, coconut, almonds, raisins or chocolate pieces, wheat germ, and brown sugar.

In a small bowl combine the egg, honey, butter or margarine, and vanilla. Add to the dry ingredients. Stir together until all ingredients are moistened.

Spread evenly in a greased 12 x 7 x 2-inch baking pan. Bake at 325 degrees F. for 30 to 35 minutes or until light brown on the edges.

Cool completely in the pan (I always set the pan on a cooling rack). Cut into squares or bars. Makes about 24.

Those are my goals...we'll see what I actually accomplish.
