How to Make Whole Grain Energy Bar

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large bowl, combine 1 cup rolled oats, ½ cup whole wheat flour, ¼ cup chopped nuts (almonds, walnuts, or pecans), ¼ cup sunflower seeds, 2 tablespoons chia seeds, and ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon.
  3. Add ⅓ cup honey, ¼ cup peanut butter (or other nut butter), and 2 tablespoons maple syrup. Mix well until everything is evenly combined. A food processor can help achieve a smoother consistency.
  4. Stir in ½ cup raisins and ½ cup chocolate chips.
  5. Line an 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper. Press the mixture firmly into the prepared pan.
  6. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown and set.
  7. Let the bars cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up.
  8. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week. (If they last that long!)
