Breakfast Bars/ Energy Bars

[tstarbrat]

Hello everyone,

I am looking for a recipe to make a breakfast bar or energy bar. I had found a recipe for a raw brownie by a girl named Tiffany, but I am looking for something crunchier and cooked. If anyone has any recipes please post. I am going on a camping trip this weekend and I need to get all my food together. . I have found lots of recipes online but most of them include oats. Is there an altenative to oats?

Yeah, that raw brownie isn't really breakfast material. :-)

You can use quinoa flakes instead of oatmeal, but it will change the taste a bit. It's probably the easiest place to start. You can also make bars out of things including flax meal, rice bran, and hemp seeds for added protein.

i'm not sure what you mean by cooked...but i made homemade granola with some of the following and you could make them into bars...these also might be potential ingredients for you... any nuts--i like almonds, cashews, mac nuts, peanuts, ses seeds, puffed rice cereal, perky's nutty rice, dried fruits you might like--raisins, dates, blueberries, i then coati with a mixture of honey and peanut butter and (short end of it), bake several times and stir during.
