FRUIT AND NUT BARS
The absence of white sugar in these bars appealed to me when I found the recipe. I played with it a bit to reduce the fat content and make them more healthful but just as tender and delicious as the original. The mix of dried fruits gives these a natural sweetness that is just wonderful. You can replace the cinnamon and nutmeg with an equivalent amount of Recipe #145505. Noe that the preparation time includes time to cool the dried fruit mix after simmering, so it is not as labor intensive as the times imply.)

Steps:
- Bring 1 cup water to boil in a medium suacepan along with the butter and dried fruit . Reduce to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes. Mix in the apple butter or apple sauce. Allow the fruit combination to cool 10-20 minutes. (Tip: Dried fruit can be quite sticky when chopping. Lightly spray your knife with cooking spray first and the task will go more quickly.).
- Mix together the flour, baking soda, spices and nuts in a bowl. Beat together the egg and egg whites. Add beaten eggs, vanilla, and fruit slurry to the bowl with the flour mix and stir until combined.
- Bake in 9 inch pan square pan at 350 degrees for 25 to 30 minutes.
- Allow to fully cool before trying to cut and serve.

FRUIT AND NUT GRANOLA BARS
I really wanted to come up with my own granola bar recipe, so I got some ideas from other recipes and came up with my own. I don't like super sweet granola bars, so these are not particularly sweet, but they can be made sweeter with more sugar, or different dried fruits! If you don't have walnuts, sunflower seeds, cranberries, or raisins, any sort of nuts or dried fruits will work. Experiment! These bars are delicious! They are a little crisp on the outside, and chewy on the inside, and just a little sweet and a little tart. They're certainly healthier (and cheaper) than most store-bought granola bars!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350*F. Line a 9x13" baking pan with parchment paper.
- Mix dry ingredients in a large bowl (oats, flour, cereal, walnuts, sunflower seeds, and raisins). By "cereal", I mean the kind of cereal you eat cold with milk (or soy milk, etc.). Any kind will work!
- In a separate bowl, mix egg whites, eggs, and vegetable oil together. Add maple syrup and honey. If you don't have/don't want to use maple syrup and honey (or have another sweetener you want to use), just use 1/4 cup of that sweetener.
- Add bananas and boiled cranberries to the bowl of wet ingredients and mix well.
- Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients and mix thoroughly.
- Stir in brown sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla extract. Depending on how sweet you want the bars to be, you may want adjust the amount of brown sugar. 1/2 cup of brown sugar does not make the bars particularly sweet because of the boiled cranberries, so you might want to add more if you like very sweet bars.
- Put granola bar mixture into lined 9x13" pan, and press firmly. Pack this very tightly, as this will help them hold together!
- Place pan in the oven and bake for 25-35 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Remove pan from oven and let cool completely (it could take up to an hour).
- Once the pan has cooled, lift the granola bars out of the pan by grabbing the parchment paper. Place it on a cutting board/cutting surface.
- Cut the bars into whatever size you like, and enjoy!

STARBUCKS CHEWY FRUIT AND NUT BARS
In fall 2008, Starbucks added several "healthy" breakfast items to their bakery case. My husband commented to me, "Look, they have a granola bar that looks exactly like the ones you make!" I checked their list of ingredients and then made modifications to my Recipe #236509 #236509, so that they are as close to the Starbucks version as possible. Take them to breakfast meetings at work, when you need something MORE than a donut, muffin or bagel.

Steps:
- Ingredient note: look in your health food aisle for a healthy alternative to Rice Krispies. The brand I found is made by Enviro-Kidz and uses BROWN rice.
- Prepare 9x13 pan with non-stick spray (or line with parchment paper).
- In a large mixing bowl, toss all dry ingredients. Feel free to substitute your preferred nut or dried fruit.
- In a saucepan, combine brown sugar and corn syrup. Bring to a boil and allow to boil one minute. (Note: boiling the sugars is what helps the bars become firm and not sticky, so this step is important).
- After boiling, turn off heat; add vanilla and peanut butter. QUICKLY pour this hot mixture over the dry ingredients and toss to combine.
- Pour warm mixture into prepared pan. Wet your fingers and press the mixture down into the pan to compress the bars so they will slice evenly.
- When cool, use a sharp knife to cut into 18 bars (1 long lengthwise cut and 9 cuts across). Enjoy with a hot cup of Starbucks coffee for an authentic experience!
- Note: Starbucks does not list corn syrup in their ingredients, but the sweetener in their list is not readily available. I tried using Maple Syrup, but the bars were very crumbly and would not stay together in bars. Therefore, I found that Corn Syrup is the best ingredient that is readily available.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (160 degrees C) and place the rack in the center of the oven.
- Have ready an 8 x 8 inch (20 x 20 cm) square baking pan that has been lined across the bottom and up the two opposite sides with aluminum foil. Set aside. 9x9 is OK.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt.
- Stir in the brown sugar, walnuts, and dried fruit. Use your fingers to make sure that all the fruit and nuts have been coated with the flour mixture.
- In a separate bowl, beat (with a wire whisk or hand mixer) the egg and vanilla until light colored and thick (this will take several minutes).
- Add the egg mixture to the fruit and nut mixture and mix until all the fruit and nut pieces are coated with the batter.
- Spread into the prepared pan, pressing to even it out.
- Bake for about 35 to 40 minutes, or until the batter is golden brown and has pulled away from the sides of the pan.
- Remove from oven and place on a wire rack to cool. When cooled, lift the bars from the pan by the edges of the aluminum foil. Use a sharp knife to cut into 16 squares.
