Homemade Energy Bars Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Combine oats, sweetened dried cranberries, sunflower seeds, white chocolate chips, sesame seeds, oat bran, flax seeds, cinnamon, and salt in a large bowl. Stir in peanut butter, honey, and oil. Press mixture firmly into a 9x13-inch baking pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden, 12 to 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes. Transfer to the refrigerator and chill for 10 minutes to set.
• Slice chilled bars into 2x3-inch squares. Wrap in plastic wrap and store in the refrigerator.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Coat a 9 by 13-inch baking pan with cooking spray.
• Place all ingredients except the syrup and eggs in a food processor and pulse until the mixture is finely chopped. Add the syrup and eggs and pulse until the mixture is well combined. It will resemble a coarse paste.
• Transfer to the baking pan and spread evenly. Bake until just done, about 20 minutes. Cut into 20 squares.

Steps:

• Stir oats, chocolate chips, flax meal, peanut butter, honey, vanilla extract, and salt together in a bowl. Roll into 24 balls and refrigerate until firm, at least 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Grease a 9x13 pan.
• Beat together eggs and oil.
• Sift together dry ingredients except fruit. Add flour to eggs, combine, then stir in fruit, nuts, and chips.
• Spread evenly in pan, bake 30 minutes, they are still soft when done.
• Cool, cut into 24 pieces, wrap in foil and freeze.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or foil. Combine the oats, wheat germ, flax seeds, sesame seeds and almonds; spread out evenly on the rimmed baking sheet and toast for approximately 10 to 15 minutes until golden, stirring occasionally and watching carefully so as not to burn.
• In the meantime, in a large bowl combine salt, coconut, cinnamon and dried cranberries; set aside.
• In a large measuring cup place the vanilla, honey, butter and brown sugar. Microwave approximately 2 minutes. Mixture will foam and bubble. Stir to completely dissolve brown sugar.
• When oat mixture is done toasting, transfer to the same bowl with coconut mixture and stir to evenly combine. Add the honey mixture and stir to incorporate.
• Line a 9" x 13" baking pan with waxed paper. Spread the mixture, using the back of a wooden spoon, pressing to create a smooth, even surface. Place another piece of waxed paper over the top, pressing down to evenly compact the mixture. Compacting is important so the bars won't fall apart when cut. (Suggestion: place one pan of same size within the other and press to even out mixture.).
• Refrigerate and completely cool the mixture about 2 hours to assure a clean cut. Firmly press down with a large knife to cut into bars. Do not saw. Wrap bars in waxed paper and store in refrigerator or freezer.
