Ingredients

• 2 cups Old-fashioned rolled oats
• 1 cup Raisins
• 0.5 cup Almonds (chopped)
• 0.5 cup Honey
• 0.5 cup Peanut butter (natural, unsweetened)
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 cup Dark chocolate chips (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it. Set aside.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, raisins, chopped almonds, cinnamon, and salt. Stir until evenly distributed.

Step 3

In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine the honey and peanut butter. Microwave the mixture for 20-30 seconds, or until it becomes slightly warm and easier to stir. Mix well.

Step 4

Add the vanilla extract to the honey and peanut butter mixture and stir to combine.

Step 5

Pour the wet mixture over the dry ingredients in the large bowl. Mix thoroughly until all the dry ingredients are evenly coated.

Step 6

If using chocolate chips, fold them into the mixture at this point.

Step 7

Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking pan. Using a spatula or the back of a spoon, press the mixture down firmly into an even layer.

Step 8

Refrigerate the pan for at least 2 hours, or until the mixture sets and holds together.

Step 9

Once set, remove the mixture from the pan using the parchment paper as handles. Place it on a cutting board and cut into 12 equal-sized bars.

Step 10

Store the raisin energy bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week or freeze for up to 3 months.
