How to Make Baked Raisin Bran Bars
- Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). Grease an 8x8 inch baking pan.
- In a large bowl, combine 3 cups of raisin bran cereal, 1/2 cup rolled oats, 1/2 cup chopped nuts (optional), 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Crumble the raisin bran well.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup Splenda (regular, not baking blend – adjust to taste), 1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce, 1/4 cup melted unsalted butter, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1/2 cup milk (any kind).
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Pour the batter into the prepared 8x8 inch baking pan and spread evenly.
- Bake for 45-55 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs.
- Let the bars cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares. Enjoy!
