Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1 cup Raisins
- 0.5 cup Almonds (chopped)
- 0.5 cup Honey
- 0.5 cup Peanut butter (natural, unsweetened)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 cup Dark chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
Line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, raisins, chopped almonds, cinnamon, and salt. Stir until evenly distributed.
In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine the honey and peanut butter. Microwave the mixture for 20-30 seconds, or until it becomes slightly warm and easier to stir. Mix well.
Add the vanilla extract to the honey and peanut butter mixture and stir to combine.
Pour the wet mixture over the dry ingredients in the large bowl. Mix thoroughly until all the dry ingredients are evenly coated.
If using chocolate chips, fold them into the mixture at this point.
Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking pan. Using a spatula or the back of a spoon, press the mixture down firmly into an even layer.
Refrigerate the pan for at least 2 hours, or until the mixture sets and holds together.
Once set, remove the mixture from the pan using the parchment paper as handles. Place it on a cutting board and cut into 12 equal-sized bars.
Store the raisin energy bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week or freeze for up to 3 months.
