Butterscotch Granola Bars

Butterscotch Granola Bars

3 cups quick-cooking oats                                      1 cup sunflower seeds

3 Tbs flax seed                                                       1 cup shredded organic coconut

1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk           1 cup butterscotch chips

¼ cup applesauce                                                   2 Tbs honey

Directions

1.   Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13 inch pan using Baker’s Joy.

2.   Place unopened can of sweetened condensed milk in a bowl of hot water. In a large bowl, mix together the oats, flax seed, sunflower seeds, coconut, and butterscotch chips with your hands until well blended. Then mix the sweetened milk, applesauce and honey together, and add it to the dry stuff. Mix well. Press flat into the prepared pan (spray hands with Baker’s Joy if sticky).

3.   Bake for 15 to 20 minutes in the preheated oven, depending on how crunchy you want them. Lightly browned just around the edges will give you moist, chewy bars.

4.   Once finished. Immediately pull them out and cut them with a cookie cutter. Then flip the entire pan onto a sheet of foil. Let cool. Then place into individual snack bags. Enjoy!
