Why make a homemade energy bar when we can buy 'em in the store? Maybe it's because this easy-to-make one is chock-full of wholesome ingredients like dried cranberries and good-for-us almonds, and tastes unlike anything we can unwrap from a package!

What You'll Need

  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 1/2 cup light corn syrup
  • 1 cup peanut butter
  • 4 cup wheat and barley nugget cereal (like Grape Nuts)
  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 1 cup sliced almonds
  • 1 cup dried cranberries

What to Do

  1. Line a 9" x 13" baking dish with foil and coat the foil with nonstick cooking spray.
     
  2. In a large saucepan, combine the sugar, corn syrup, and peanut butter over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
     
  3. Add the remaining ingredients; mix well then spread evenly into the prepared pan.
     
  4. Let cool then cut into bars and serve, or cover until ready to serve.
