  Not worth it

  Rated: 2 stars out of 5

  I followed other's advice and used less Bisquick, but these just didn't have the taste I expected. Actually they didn't have... much taste at all. Would not bother to make them againRead more

  Great bars!

  Rated: 4 stars out of 5

  Made this last night when I was just in the mood to bake something healthy. I used cran-raisins instead of raisins. I used... ONLY 1/2 CUP BISQUICK as the other reviews suggested. I figured out 1/16 (USED 9X9 PAN made 16 squares) of the recipe at about 160 calories. They taste very good, although my kids were mad about the cranberries and picked them out! I will make them again maybe with nuts instead of fruit to get my kids to eat them. I used whole grain oats (the long cook kind). Very good, as we try to eat very clean. The only "unhealthy" ingredient was the Bisquick... try them!Read more

  Nutella fan. I swapped out peanut butter.

  Rated: 4 stars out of 5

  I was looking for a basic recipe for making an oatmeal bar that would do well using Nutella hazelnut spread. So I substituted... Nutella for peanut butter, added chopped walnuts instead of raisins, used white chocolate chips and regular applesauce (no cinnamon). First I made these with the 3/4 C of baking mix, (actually used Jiffy). Good, but dry. I then looked here and saw that the measurement was wrong. Second time around AWESOME!Read more

  Do wonder they are dry!!!

  Rated: 5 stars out of 5

  I just saw this air today so I haven't mad them yet. I scored it high since I have high hopes for this recipe. I have read... the reviews on how they were dry and I replayed her show. Sandra only puts in 1/3c of baking mix and not the 3/4c of baking mix that the Food Network has on the website. It's a misprint. I hope this helps out and I hope mine turn out good.Read more

  Good Snack Bars

  Rated: 3 stars out of 5

  I made these exactly to the recipe and was surprised that they came out very dry and dense. There was not enough moist... ingredients to keep the bars from becoming grainy. I might try these again with less Bisquick. Thanks Food Network!!! Read more

  Good recipe, though I made some subs

  Rated: 4 stars out of 5

  I saw this on the show and had to make it, because it had all of my nephews fave flavors in it!. I doubled the recipe. I... beat the eggs first, and added vanilla. I didn't have any applesauce but I had 4 old bananas, so I mashed them and used them instead of the applesauce. I didn't have any problems with dryness. I added some cinnamon for flavor. I think the honey is too much, so I would cut back on that next time. I am not a big fan of raisins, so I used all chocolate chips. So this ended up being oatmeal, pb and banana, and it came out really good. My nephew LOVED them, and they have good fiber and protein for after school, and as someone else mentioned a good on the go breakfast bar!Read more
