Cashew Cherry Bars

I can hear you already going what on earth is that?????



Well.....If words like “Bars” make you think, “Ew, weird, clicking away now." Don’t–click away!


Avoiding things that sound weird will keep you from enjoying things that taste amazing.



So onto the recipe...

 First things first

Ingredients:

1 cup oats
1 cup puffed grain cereal
3 tbsp vegetable oil
1/2 cup honey
2 whole eggs
1/4 cup wheat germ
1/2 cup flour
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 cup chopped cashews
1/2 cup dried cherries

Second things steps...

    Preheat the oven to 325°F and coat an 8" x 8" baking pan with cooking spray.

   Toast the rolled oats and puffed grain cereal in a dry skillet over medium heat, stirring frequently, until aromatic, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a large mixing bowl.

    Toss the toasted oats and cereal with vegetable oil to coat. Stir in the honey and eggs and coat the oats and cereal. Sprinkle in wheat germ, flour, cashews, cinnamon, and salt, stir to combine. Finally, add the cherries and toss to mix in.

    Lightly press the mixture into the prepared pan and bake for 20 minutes, or until firm and golden.

    Cool in pan on a wire rack. Once cooled, turn onto a cutting board and cut into eight bars.


Now simple disclosure I will on occasion borrow pictures from other sites if I did not take one and I apologize...The above picture came from www.glutenfreedish.com
