If you enjoy a chewy fruit and nut bar, this recipe is for you. It is a really satisfying and the flavor combination is the perfect combination. It's healthy & fun to make. They are very satisfying treat for after school, a camping trip or dessert after dinner. I've eaten them for breakfast with a cup of hot coffee as well....
