K's ROCKIN RECIPES 

K’s MOUNTAIN ENERGY BARS

There are infinite variations to these healthy organic treats – use different types of cereal flakes, nut butters, nuts, rolled grains, seeds and dried fruit.

This makes a big batch – about 20 bars, depending on size

• 1 cup Organic Brown Rice Syrup
  
  
• 4-5 T Raw Coconut Butter or oil (Optional)
  
  
• 1/2 - 3/4 Cup Nut Butter (almond, cashew or organic Peanut Butter – I use Maranantha brand, it`s the best)
  
  
• 4 Cup Cereal Flakes ( any whole grain flake: Multigrain, millet rice, kamut, buckwheat, etc.)
  
  
• 2-3 cups Grains– buckwheat or popped Amaranth or another gluten free version(for a less sweet version of bar...add more grains
  
  
• 1 Cup dried fruit (raisins, chopped dates, apricots, dried cranberries, blueberries, or cherries)
  
  
• 1-1/2 Cups Seeds and Nuts ( you can substitute part or all of this with pumpkin seeds or sesame seeds or sliced almonds)
  
  

1. Combinealldryingredientsinabigmixingbowl.

2. Gently (low temperature) heat syrup, coconut butter, and nut butter in a large-sized saucepan until melted. Stir well.

* Another option to heat would be this - Put Reis Syrup, Coconut Butter, Nut Butter (in their own jars) in very hot water (I start with boiling)- cover up and let sit for at least 45min.

3. Pour over dry ingredients and mix well.
4. Pat into a 13 x 9 inch pan + another small one.
5. Refridgerate at least 1 hour and then cut into squares or bars. 

Warning...You will not be able to keep away from these!!!
