Yield: 48 servingsRecipe by luhu.jp
Ingredients:
2 cup: Dried prunes, pitted
2/3 cup: Orange juice,
1/2 cup: Chopped nuts,
3/4 cup: Margarine, soft
3/4 cup: Packed brown sugar,
1/4 cup: Honey,
1: Egg,
1 1/2 cup: All-purpose flour,
1 1/2 cup: Rolled oats,
1/4 cup: Wheat germ,
1 tsp: Baking soda,
1/2 tsp: Salt,
Directions:
* Substitute 1/2 cup dried apricots for half of the prunes if desired.
Fiber content will remain about the same.
1. Combine prunes (and apricots if using) 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. 2. 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. 3. Grease a 9 x 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. 4. Bake in
a preheated 350-degree oven 30-35 minutes or until browned and
springs back to the touch. 5. Cool on wire rack. Cut into bars about
1 by 2 inches each.
