Ingredients
• 1/2 cup salted almonds
• 1/2 cup roasted sunflower seeds, or other
chopped nuts
• 2 cups raisins, or other chopped dried fruit
• 2 cups rolled or instant oats
• 2 cups toasted rice cereal, such as Rice
Krispies
• 1/4 cup toasted wheat germ, (optional)
• 1/2 cup creamy or crunchy natural almond
butter
• 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
• 1/2 cup honey (substitute for agave sweet-
ener)
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Preparation
1. Coat a 9–by–13–inch baking pan
with cooking spray.
2. Combine the almonds, sunflower
seeds (or other nuts), raisins (or
other dried fruit), oats, rice cereal
and wheat germ (if using) in a
large bowl.
3. Combine almond butter, brown
sugar and corn syrup (or honey)
in a large microwaveable bowl;
microwave on High until bubbling,
1 to 2 minutes. Add vanilla and stir
until blended. Pour the almond but-
ter mixture over the dry ingredients
and stir until coated.
4. Transfer the mixture to the prepared
pan. Press down firmly. (It helps

spray.) Let stand for about 1 hour to
harden. Cut into bars.
