Cook Mode(Keep screen awake)

Ingredients

3cupsold-fashioned oats

1cupcrispy brown-rice cereal

1cupsemisweet chocolate chips

1cupunsweetened shredded coconut

¼teaspoonsalt

⅔cupbrown rice syrup

½cuptahini

1teaspoonvanilla extract

Directions

Combine oats, cereal, chocolate chips, coconut and salt in a large bowl.

Combine rice syrup, tahini and vanilla in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on High for 30 seconds. (Alternatively, heat in a saucepan over medium heat for 1 minute.)Add to the dry ingredients and stir until evenly combined. Transfer to the prepared pan; firmly press the mixture into the pan with the back of a spatula.

For chewier bars, bake until barely starting to color around the edges and still soft in the middle, 20 to 25 minutes. For crunchier bars, bake until golden brown around the edges and somewhat firm in the middle, 30 to 35 minutes. (Both will still be soft when warm and will firm up as they cool.)

Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then, using the parchment to help you, lift out of the pan onto a cutting board (it will still be soft). Cut into 24 bars, then let cool completely without separating the bars, about 30 minutes more. Once cool, separate into bars.

Nutrition Facts(per serving)

  • Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
