A healthy and low calorie snack, yet so delicious and fun, that my 2 and a half year old son and I enjoyed it equally! :)
Makes: 18-20 bars
Calories: About 125 per bar
2 cups oats
1 cup flour
1/2 cup shredded coconut
1/8 cup sugar
1 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1/3 cup honey
1/4 cup raisins, chocolate chips or any kind of nuts you prefer (optional)
Preheat oven to 375 F (190 C). In a bowl, mix all the dry ingredients and then add the oil and honey. Mix well, preferably with your hands (otherwise it may crumble), until it is blended well and sticky. Add the raisins, chocolate chips or nuts. Firmly press evenly into a shallow baking dish. Bake for 10-15 minutes till it seems a bit puffy and still soft. Do not wait for it to get too brown or they will be too hard. Take out of the oven and cut into bars while still soft. Wait for it to cool and harden completely before serving.
