Quinoa Peanut Better Flax Seed Bar
Ingredients
2/3 cup creamy peanut butter (though crunchy may have been better)
2/3 cup honey
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
1/2 tsp sea salt
1/2 tsp cinnamon
4 cups cooked quinoa **
1 cup raisins
1/2 cup flax seed
Method
Cook peanut butter, honey, salt, cinnamon and vanilla over medium to low heat and stir constantly. Once it has all melted down pour the entire contents over the quinoa, raisins and flax seeds. Stir until it is completely combined. Transfer onto a cookie sheet that has either been pregreased or use parchment paper (my preference). Press down to flatten out the mixture. Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes, this should solidify the bar a bit more.
WARNING: I haven't gotten the recipe quite right so the bar isn't as firm as I'd like for it to be, but it is still super tasty. So enjoy!
**If you want something that you don't have to bake try using 6 cups brown rice cereal (very hard to find) instead of quinoa. Set it in the fridge for half hour or so then cut up and enjoy.
