Granola Bars

Total Time: 40 minutes
Serves: 6
 
Ingredients

• 2 cups old fashioned oats, divided
• 1 Tbsp cinnamon
• 1 cup spinach puree (about 3 cups fresh)
• 3 Tbsp honey
• 3 Tbsp maple syrup
• 3 Tbsp peanut butter
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 1/3 cup slivered almonds
• 1/3 cup raisins
• 6 hard boiled eggs
  
• 3 cups blackberries
  

 
Directions

1. Pre-heat the oven to 300 F.
2. Place ½ cup of the oats into a food processor and process until oats have reached a flour-like consistency.
3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the remaining dry ingredients (except for the raisins) and toss the ingredients until all are well incorporated.
4. In another mixing bowl, combine the wet ingredients and whisk until smooth and then add to the dry ingredients.
5. Stir until dry ingredients are mixed into the wet ingredients and carefully fold in your almonds and raisins.
6. Line a 9x9 pan with parchment paper and transfer the granola bar mixture into the pan. Using your hands, press the mixture into the pan so it is even.
7. Bake for 25 minutes. Let cool completely before cutting into 12 bars. Each serving is 2 bars. Store the leftovers in the fridge or freezer.
8. Serve each with 1 hard boiled egg and 1/2 cup blackberries.
