These hearty breakfast bars remind me of a granola bar or an omega-3 packed power bar. They're filling and tasty.
After I made a batch of these and was waiting for them to cool before cutting and stylizing them for a “photo shoot,” my younger son proudly taunted me that he had picked out all of the raisins from the top of the bars.
Needless to say, I was quite miffed. Especially since I have a couple of half gallon jars full of raisins at the boys disposal which they freely dip into when they have a “sugar” fix.
Well, I found a corner of the bars that still had the raisins mostly in tact for the photo above.
None of the nuts and seeds in this low-maintenance bar are toasted. I wanted to make something quick and easy, that could be whipped up in just a couple of minutes before popping into the oven.
In other news, NPR just ran an interesting story on celiac disease that I think is worth checking out.

Hi – my friend brought your bars to a holiday weekend trip, and I loved them. I have everything and am ready to bake them – how long do they keep? Should they be in the refrigerator? Can they be frozen? Please let me know – thank you so much, Jeannie
Jeannie, let the bars cool on the counter overnight, then wrap up and store in the fridge for up to one week :-)
