WHOLESOME GRANOLA BARS

Makes 20 bars.

1-1/2 cups low fat granola
(such as Healthy Choice Plain Granola)
1 cup quick or old-fashioned oats, uncooked
3/4 cup dried tart cherries
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/3 cup slivered almonds, toasted
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 egg whites, slightly beaten
1/3 cup honey
1/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar
2 tablespoons vegetable oil

 
Line bottom and sides of an 8x8x2 inch baking pan with foil. Lightly spray the foil with nonstick spray. Set aside.

Combine granola, oatmeal, cherries, flour, almonds and cinnamon in a large mixing bowl. Stir together egg whites, honey, brown sugar and oil. Stir into the cereal mixture, stirring until all is coated. Press mixture evenly into the prepared pan.

Bake in a preheated 350-degree oven 20 to 25 minutes, or until bars are light brown. Let cool on a wire rack. Use foil to remove bars from pan. Let cool completely. Cut into bars.
