List of Ingredients





2 cups quick oats
1/2 cup dried coconut
1/4 cup raisins or dates
1/2 cup nut butter or 1/2 cup tahini
1/2 cup unsweetened juice or applesauce
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 - 1/2 cup sweetener
1/4 cup carob chips, unsweetened
3 Tbsp. arrowroot
1 cup cooked oatmeal
1 ripe banana or 1/2 cup or grated apple

**Quinoa flakes may be substituted for the oat and oatmeal. Recipe not suitable for those who cannot eat oats.

Recipe



Mix oats, coconut, carob drops, raisins, salt and arrowroot in a mixing bowl. Then add cooked oatmeal.

Blend juice, banana, sweetener, and nut butter and add to dry ingredients. Mix well.

Let mixture sit for 15 minutes or until oats absorb the liquid. If mixture is to runny, add more quick oats.

Spoon mixture onto 2 well oiled cookie sheets, using 2 Tbsp. per cookie.

Bake at 350 degrees F. for 30 minutes, until golden brown.

Let cookies cool before attempting to remove them from the cookie sheets.

Variation: Oil only 1 cookie sheet and spread batter out evenly. Bake 35 - 40 minutes. After baking and cooling, cut into 24 bars.
