Almond Granola Bars
Yield: 16 Servings  VG, VN, WF, DF, EF, SoF

1 1/2 c Rolled oats 1/4 c Oat bran 1/4 c Finely chopped almonds 1/2 ts Ground cinnamon 2 tb Vegetable oil plus

1 ts Vegetable oil 1/3 c Honey 1/2 ts Vanilla extract 1/4 ts Almond extract

Preheat oven to 350 F. Spray a baking sheet with non-stick spray.

Combine dry ingredients in a large bowl. Combine remaining ingredients and add to dry mixture. Mix until all ingredients are moistened.

Press mixture into a rectangular shape 7 inches wide and nine inches long. (Wet hands or use one hand and a damp spoon.)

Bake about 12 minutes. Remove from oven and cut into 16 bars using a sharp knife. Separate bars slightly and return to oven for 3 to 5 minutes more. The browner the bottom of the bars, the crisper they will be when cool.

The edges will crumble slightly when cut - set aside for a snack. Remove to a wire rack to cool.

"I dumped the mixture onto my baking stone, covered it with plastic wrap and rolled it into a 7x9 inch rectangle with a rolling pin. An excellent treat. Would go well in kids' lunches. I would increase the oil to 3 Tb and add some dried fruit such as chopped raisins or dates."
