A camping recipe from Lorraine. No bake and very nutritious.

Prep Time: 20 minutes

Total Time: 20 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1-1/2 cups peanut butter (I like chunky)
  • 5 cups whole grain cereal flakes
  • 6 ounces mixed dried fruit bits

Preparation:

In a saucepan, stir together brown sugar and honey. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and add peanut butter, stir until smooth. Next, stir in whole grain cereal flakes; then add the dried fruit bits to the mixture. Spread into greased 12" x 7-1/2" x 2" baking pan. Spread 1/3 cup fruit bits on top and press into mixture. Let cool. Cut into 24 bars and wrap each bar in saran wrap. If desired, refrigerate before the trip.

Servings: 24 bars
