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
- Measure water (currently using a splash. Possibly a 1/4 cup. Maybe less.)
- Get it down to 1500 calories if possible
####Ongoing Notes
v0.1: Optimized between 20-50 grams of each ingredient except eggs, peanuts and spinach powder.
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 just like blackberry cobbler. Name needed to be changed.
