Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup almond butter or other nut butter
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1 cup crispy brown rice cereal
  • 1 cup granola
  • 1/2 cup almonds, chopped
  • 1/2 cup dried apricots, chopped
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • vegetable oil for greasing

Equipment

  • 1-cup measure, 1/2-cup measure and 1/4 teaspoon measure
  • small saucepan
  • whisk
  • mixing bowl
  • spoon
  • spatula
  • plastic wrap
  • 8 x 8" (or similar size) square baking pan or dish

Directions

  1. Put almond butter and honey in a small saucepan over medium heat for 2 to 3 minutes or until they melt together; whisk to combine.
  2. Put crispy rice cereal, granola, almonds, apricots and salt in a bowl and add the mixture of almond butter and honey; stir well to combine.
  3. Grease a 7- or 8-inch square baking dish with a little oil and line it with plastic wrap. Spread the granola mixture evenly into the dish, pressing down gently, and cover with more plastic wrap.
