Method

*Note: These instructions should be the same for all my bars.

  • Preheat oven to 350.
  • Mix powdered ingredients (such as flour, spices and/or oatmeal).
  • Chop up dried fruits and nuts, if any, and mix with flour mixture to keep from sticking.
  • Mix eggs and syrup in separate bowl.
  • Mix liquid and dry ingredients. (I do this in a kitchen aid stand mixer. I put the wet ingredients in first to prevent sticking and then the dry ingredients on top. I then mix for as little time as possible to get the dry ingredients coated in the mixture)
  • Put mixture into baking dish (line with parchment for easy clean up) about a granola bar thickness.
  • Bake for 22 min or till tops of bars slightly golden. (this may need a longer cooking time if the dish you use is smaller than mine)

Reasons and Goals

*see recipe "Agrovittles: Electric Green Energy Bars" for my theories on 'full spectrum'

Notes on Nutrients and Calculations

*see recipe "Agrovittles: Electric Green Energy Bars" for my reasons for using the nutrient profiles that I do. Certain nutrients with RDI values are left out for various reasons, one of which is the USDA not testing foods for those ingredients.

ToDo List

  1. Measure water (currently using a splash. Possibly a 1/4 cup. Maybe less.)

Ongoing Notes

v0.1:

v1.0: Incremented version to indicate that this recipe has been tried and is ready for prime time. No changes to ingredients but after trying this one, I decided it tastes like banana bread. Name changed to reflect this.
