Default Re: Bake your own Energy Bars...

Hal, those sound great but I've often made my "own" energy bars. As a competitive weekend runner, I found I was spending a fortune on energy bars. I've devised a basic recipe of my own! I usually use a base of :

1 c. oats
1/2 c. protein powder
1/2 c. whole wheat flour
1/2 c. jam
water (as needed - varies on additions)
additions to bar - I always throw in some nuts, dried fruit, bananas, etc. depending on what's in season. Canned pumpkin is also WONDERFUL to use, as it's VERY high in fiber and tastes great!
