Peanut butter Protein Bars

2 1/2 cups Brown Rice Cereal

2 cups quick-cooking oats

2/3 cup raisins

1/3 cup gogi berries (or more raisins)

3/4 cup ground almond meal (you can grind almonds into a fine flour or find this at Trader Joe’s, Whole Foods…etc)

1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon nutmeg

1/2 cup honey

1/4 cup brown sugar

1/2 cup peanut butter (or any other nut butter)

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

dash sea salt

Whisk together the Brown Rice Cereal, oats, raisins, gogi berries, almond meal, cinnamon, and nutmeg in a large bowl.

In a medium saucepan, heat the honey and brown sugar over medium-low heat. Stir frequently until the sugar dissolves.

Add the peanut butter into the honey mixture while still over the heat. Stir until completely combined. Next, stir in the vanilla and salt.

Mix contents of saucepan into the dry ingredients. Using a rubber spatula, stir the ingredients together until the dry ingredients are mixed into the peanut butter mixture.

Press the mixture firmly into a 9×13-inch pan, (using your fingertips.) Chill in the refrigerator. Cut into squares. Devour.
