FRUIT AND NUT BARS
The absence of white sugar in these bars appealed to me when I found the recipe. I played with it a bit to reduce the fat content and make them more healthful but just as tender and delicious as the original. The mix of dried fruits gives these a natural sweetness that is just wonderful. You can replace the cinnamon and nutmeg with an equivalent amount of Recipe #145505. Noe that the preparation time includes time to cool the dried fruit mix after simmering, so it is not as labor intensive as the times imply.)

Steps:
- Bring 1 cup water to boil in a medium suacepan along with the butter and dried fruit . Reduce to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes. Mix in the apple butter or apple sauce. Allow the fruit combination to cool 10-20 minutes. (Tip: Dried fruit can be quite sticky when chopping. Lightly spray your knife with cooking spray first and the task will go more quickly.).
- Mix together the flour, baking soda, spices and nuts in a bowl. Beat together the egg and egg whites. Add beaten eggs, vanilla, and fruit slurry to the bowl with the flour mix and stir until combined.
- Bake in 9 inch pan square pan at 350 degrees for 25 to 30 minutes.
- Allow to fully cool before trying to cut and serve.

FRUIT AND NUTTY BARS
These bar cookies are a lil fruity, a lil nutty and a lil crazy chocolatey yumminess all rolled into one! These were a big hit with my family and friends, and would be great at a potluck, a party or just to munch on. **Cooking time does not include chilling time**

Steps:
- Melt the butter in a 9x13 inch pan by putting the pan in a 350 degree oven.
- Keep an eye on the butter, and when it's melted, take the pan out of the oven(but keep the oven at 350 degrees) and sprinkle the graham cracker crumbs over top.
- Mix this well and then press it evenly on the bottom of the pan to form your crust.
- Next, in a microwave safe bowl, mix together the marshmellow creme and the Nutella.
- Microwave this mixture for 30-60 seconds, just until it's smooth, easy to stir and a little warm.
- Drop spoonfuls of the Nutella mixture around the crust in little blobs.
- Now take your kiwi slices and evenly scatter them on top.
- Pour the can of sweetened condensed milk over everything evenly.
- Scatter the cranberries, cashews, milk chocolate chips and white chocolate chips next.
- Lightly press down the layers in the pan.
- Bake in your 350 degree pre-heated oven for 25-30 minutes; it should be browned slightly around the edges.
- Let cool completely, then slice into bars and put in the fridge for at least an hour to help them set up a bit.
- Store covered in the fridge, and enjoy!
STARBUCKS CHEWY FRUIT AND NUT BARS
In fall 2008, Starbucks added several "healthy" breakfast items to their bakery case. My husband commented to me, "Look, they have a granola bar that looks exactly like the ones you make!" I checked their list of ingredients and then made modifications to my Recipe #236509 #236509, so that they are as close to the Starbucks version as possible. Take them to breakfast meetings at work, when you need something MORE than a donut, muffin or bagel.

Steps:
- Ingredient note: look in your health food aisle for a healthy alternative to Rice Krispies. The brand I found is made by Enviro-Kidz and uses BROWN rice.
- Prepare 9x13 pan with non-stick spray (or line with parchment paper).
- In a large mixing bowl, toss all dry ingredients. Feel free to substitute your preferred nut or dried fruit.
- In a saucepan, combine brown sugar and corn syrup. Bring to a boil and allow to boil one minute. (Note: boiling the sugars is what helps the bars become firm and not sticky, so this step is important).
- After boiling, turn off heat; add vanilla and peanut butter. QUICKLY pour this hot mixture over the dry ingredients and toss to combine.
- Pour warm mixture into prepared pan. Wet your fingers and press the mixture down into the pan to compress the bars so they will slice evenly.
- When cool, use a sharp knife to cut into 18 bars (1 long lengthwise cut and 9 cuts across). Enjoy with a hot cup of Starbucks coffee for an authentic experience!
- Note: Starbucks does not list corn syrup in their ingredients, but the sweetener in their list is not readily available. I tried using Maple Syrup, but the bars were very crumbly and would not stay together in bars. Therefore, I found that Corn Syrup is the best ingredient that is readily available.

FRUIT AND NUT BARS
A real standout at the pot-luck dessert table amid the brownies and chocolate chip cookies. Very easy to make, but do it the night before to give them time to cool ALL the way. They're better the next day anyway. If you need to leave out the nuts just up the amount of fruit.

Steps:
- prepare cookie sheet or jelly-roll pan by lining with foil and spraying with cooking spray; they'll never come out of the pan otherwise!
