    Low Fat Chewy Fruit and Oatmeal Bars


    Source of Recipe


    I found this recipe on a box of old fashioned oatmeal.

    Recipe Introduction


    Oatmeal is an excellent way to add a little extra nutrition and fiber to a sweet treat.



    List of Ingredients




    1/2-3/4 cup packed brown sugar
    1/2 cup sugar
    1 8-oz container vanilla or plain low-fat yogurt
    2 egg whites, lightly beaten
    2 T. vegetable oil
    2 T. fat-free milk
    2 t. vanilla
    1 1/2 cup flour
    1 t. baking soda
    1 t. ground cinnamon
    1/2 t. salt (optional)
    3 c. oats (old fashioned or quick, uncooked)
    1 c. diced dried mixed fruit, raisins, or dried cranberries

    Recipe



    Directions:

    In a large bowl, combine the sugars, yogurt, egg whites, oil, milk and vanilla. Mix well.

    In a medium bowl, combine flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt; mix well.

    Add to yogurt mixture; mix well.

    Stir in oats and fruit.

    Spread dough onto bottom of ungreased 9x13 pan and bake in a preheated 350 oven for 28-32 minutes or until lightly brown.

    Cool completely on wire rack. Cut into bars and store in a covered container.
    This recipe yields 2 dozen bars.
