When I saw Michelle's post, I had to laugh because I have a peanut butter granola bar that I've been meaning to post, but was waiting to make them again so I could remember to take a picture. I got this a while back and make a batch a couple times a month. They keep very well in the fridge (tightly covered/wrapped) and the girls love them as a mid-morning snack.
*1 egg white
*1/2 c. chunky peanut butter
*1/3 c. brown sugar
*1/4 c. honey
*1 TBSP light corn syrup (optional)
*1/3-1/2 c. unsalted butter, melted
*2 c. old fashioned oats
*1 TBSP. ground flax
*1/4 c. slivered almonds, toasted
*1/3 c. mini chocolate chips
Preheat oven to 350. Lightly spray a 7 x 10 3/4" baking pan with vegetable spray. Line with a 6 x 18" parchment paper and lightly spray paper.
In a medium bowl, use a fork to whisk egg white until white and frothy. Stir in peanut butter, brown sugar, honey and corn syrup if using. Add butter, oats, flax and almonds. Combine well and stir in chocolate chips.
Use a spatula to evenly press the mixture into prepared pan. Bake 15-18 minutes until the edge begins to brown. Remove from oven and let cool at least 1 hour. Remove parchment (and granola bars) and cut into squares.
