If you need a homespun snack or bake sale treat that can be assembled in a hurry, try these moist nutty bars. The squares are sweet, flavorful and loaded with chopped apple and nuts. Best of all, they won't break the bank because they cost only 15¢ per bar. -Jennifer Dzubinski San Antonio, Texas

WALNUT, RAISIN, APPLE BARS



Walnut, Raisin, Apple Bars image

I made these yesterday and took them to a Labor Day Cookout and everyone thought they were delicious. I got the recipe from Family Circle Magazine, but I made a few changes. It called for dried apples but I used fresh ones and it didn't have walnuts in it, which I think goes so well with apples. This is going to be a keeper

APPLE WALNUT BREAKFAST BARS



Apple Walnut Breakfast Bars image

Easy and delicious breakfast bar (healthy too!). They are no-bake. I usually use Raisin Bran or Bran Flakes for the cereal part, but Corn flakes, cheerios, or even rice krispies would be great. From BHG.

APPLE-WALNUT BARS



APPLE-WALNUT BARS image

Categories     Dessert     Bake

Yield 15 bars

Number Of Ingredients 11

32 graham cracker squares
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2/3 cup dried apples
1/2 cup sugar
2 large egg whites
1 large egg
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup chopped walnuts, chopped and toasted (see Tip)
2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
Tip: To toast chopped walnuts: Place in a small dry skillet and cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until fragrant and lightly browned, 2 to 4 minutes.

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 300 degrees F. Coat an 8-by-12-inch baking dish with cooking spray. Process graham crackers and cinnamon in a food processor until you have fine crumbs. Leaving about 1/2 cup in the workbowl, transfer the crumbs to another container. Add apples to the workbowl and process until coarsely chopped. Combine sugar, egg whites, egg, vanilla and salt in a large bowl. Beat with an electric mixer on high speed until thick, about 3 minutes. Fold in the apple mixture and walnuts just until combined. Transfer batter to the prepared baking dish; smooth the top with a wet rubber spatula. Bake until the top feels dry and a skewer inserted in the center comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes. Let cool completely on a wire rack. Dust lightly with confectioners' sugar and cut into 15 bars.
