High Fiber Energy Bars

Ingredients

For 1 people

  • 2 cup(s) dried prunes, pitted
  • 2/3 cup(s) orange juice
  • 1/2 cup(s) chopped nuts
  • 12 tablespoon(s) margarine, soft
  • 3/4 cup(s) packed brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup(s) honey
  • 1 egg
  • 1 1/2 cup(s) all purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 cup(s) rolled oats
  • 4 tablespoon(s) wheat germ
  • 1 teaspoon(s) baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon(s) salt

Directions

Combine prunes (or apricots) with the orange juice in a blender. Blend until almost smooth, scrapping down the sides of the blender a few times. Stir in the nuts; set mixture aside. In a large bowl, cream the margarine, sugar and honey. Beat in the egg. Mix in flour, oats, wheat germ, baking soda and salt to blend thoroughly. Grease a 9 × 13-inch baking pan. Spread a little less than half of the flour mixture evenly in the pan. Spread the prune mixture evenly over the mixture in pan, keeping the prune mixture to within 1/2 inch of the edges. Crumble the remaining flour mixture over the top to cover the prune mixture. Pat down gently. Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven 30-35 minutes or until browned and springs back to the touch. Cool on wire rack. Cut into bars about 1 by 2 inches each.
