I was teaching my students the benefits of including cereals in their diet. So yesterday I brought to school the different kinds of cereals for them to see. Rolled oats was of the cereals that they have never seen before. We were discussing about how cereals lost their nutrients through processing. Anyway, this morning before I went for my exercise, I made Granola bars and the main ingredient used was Rolled Oats. With this recipe, I made 2 cheese cake pan of granola bars that I cut into 12 bars per pan. In the supermarket, 1 granola bar cost about $1.60.... so I think from now on, I'll make my own... it's so easy!
This recipe is the combination of the many recipes that I "found" in the net, I combined them together to make this version ....
Dry stuff:
4 1/2 cup rolled oats ( roasted in the oven for 10 minutes at 120C)
1/2 cup icing sugar
1/2 cup egg replacer
1/2 cup walnuts
1 cup sesame seeds
1 cup dried dessicated coconut
1 cup raisins
1 cup rice bubbles
1 tsp baking soda
2 tsp cinnamon powder
1/2 tsp salt
Wet stuff:- Put in a bowl heat 1 min in microwave oven
2/3 cup honey
3/4 cup oil
Steps:
In a large bowl combine all the dry stuff, add in the wet stuff.
Grease pan well, then press mixture tightly in the pan . Bake for 15 min at 160C, then another 10 minutes at 120C, leave the pan in the oven to cool off. Cut the granola while it is still warm.... :)
