A bowl of bite sized energy bars.This recipe was shared on Facebook by a friend. I left off 2 ingredients. It calls for 1/2 cup ground flax seed and 1 Tbsp. chia seed which I probably should not have because I am on blood thinner. I didn't add anything else to the recipe in place of these 2 items and they came out really good. They are even better when they have been in the refrigerator for several days but you need to put them out of sight as they will get gone fast.

  7. Set in refrigerator for an hour.
  8. Roll into 1 inch balls.

This is a great snack recipe. Also, you can make substitutions to it to change it up and make it taste different. Soy butter, almond butter, cashew butter, etc can be used in place of peanut butter.

Similar to energy bars for sale, these bars are made fresher and more frugally with ingredients on hand in many kitchens.

Before I cut into bars it appears they may crumble. Used 6 tablespoons of agave, I don't want more sugar. How about peanut butter? Any suggestions? Thanks.

Sometimes I start craving chocolate, but as we all know, candy bars are NOT healthy. The coconut oil used in this recipe actually helps you lose fat.

In a small bowl stir in honey, vanilla, and peanut butter. Add dry ingredients; blend thoroughly. Mix with your hands to make sure all dry ingredients have been well coated. Pack in a lightly greased 9 X 12 teflon pan.
