Ingredients

  • Cooking spray
  • 1 cup quick-cooking oats
  • 1 cup bran cereal
  • 1/4 cup whole-wheat flour
  • 1 cup walnut pieces
  • 1 1/2 cups coarsely chopped stemmed dried figs
  • 1/2 cup nonfat dry milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 2 large eggs

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350. Coat a 9-by-13-inch baking pan with cooking spray.

Place the oats, cereal, flour, walnuts, figs, dry milk, cinnamon and ginger in a food processor; coarsely chop.

Add the honey and eggs; pulse until well combined.

Transfer the mixture to the pan; spread evenly with your fingers. Bake until lightly browned around the edges, about 20 minutes. Cool in the pan for 15 minutes, then cut into 16 bars. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or wrap individually and freeze for up to 3 months.

    Very, very good. I used fresh figs cut into small pieces and stirred in after everything was combined.
    Much better than any energy bar you could buy at the store.

    These bars are pretty tasty and nutritious so I will be making them again. I plan to add the walnuts after processing so the bars are a little crunchier. I'd also like to add some dried cranberries to punch up the flavor a bit.
