INSTRUCTIONS
Source: "The Healthy Heart Handbook" by Neal Pinckney
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Mix all ingredients together.
Pour into a non-stick 9" square baking dish. Bake for 35 minutes or until
firm. Cool and cut into squares. (best served cold, IMO .. see notes below)
Serves: 12
You can add other extracts or spices such as: 1/2 - 1 tsp. or combination
of: coconut, banana, almond extracts, cocoa powder, cinnamon, nutmeg,
allspice, ginger, clove, lemon and orange peel.
These freeze well and travel well!
From: Natalie Frankel (Natalie.Frankel@mixcom.com)
my notes: I added almond and coconut extracts (1 t. each), lemon peel,
juice of 1/2 lemon and 2 T. coconut (I know, I know .. I wanted the flavors
of a *very* fattening cookie I love) .. still a little too soft in the
center at 35" .. 5-10 more... now cooling .. we'll see ;) ... they're okay
.. too mushy texture for me while warm (closer to grapenuts in milk, nuked
for a minute) .. may need sweetening for me.
aHA!!! Next morning, cooled in fridge, they are wonderful - and sweet
enough when cool..YAY! - for a cereal on the run type of thing or whenever
one might eat a granola bar, for example. They are softer in texture but
firm enough to remain in a compact bar you can hold. I cannot, however,
taste the extracts or lemon. May try more next time ... these I will make
again and again :). Thanks, Neal ....
