LEMON-RAISIN BREAKFAST BARS
2 cups raisins
14 ounces sweentened condensed milk
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon lemon rind
1 cup butter
11/2 cups brown sugar
11/2 teaspoons vanilla
1 cup flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
11/2 cups rolled oats
1 cup chopped walnuts or almonds
In a saucepan, combine raisins, milk, lemon juice and lemon rind. Heat and stir until bubbling, then remove from heat to cool slightly. In a bowl, beat together butter, brown sugar, and vanilla to make a batter. Stir in flour, baking soda and salt, then add oats and nuts. Press all but 2 cups of the batter into a greased 13 x 9-inch pan. Spread raisin mixture on top of the batter to within 1/2 inch of the edges. Sprinkle with dollops of reserved batter; press lightly.
Bake at 350 degrees F. for 25 to 30 minutes, or until golden brown. Allow to cool, then slice into 12 bars and package 2 bars per zipper-lock plastic bag. Yields 12 bars.

Sounds very good. I would add dried cranberries (craisins), and toasted hazlenuts instead of walnuts. I wonder if theres any way to cut down the amount of butter? Perhaps use half a cup of butter, and half a cup of applesauce. YUMMY

The lemon raisin breakfast bars are yummy. I am munching on one as we speak. Well, as I type to you. I used pecans for the nuts, since that's what I had on hand. And I used whole wheat flour because I didn't feel like opening the new bag of a.p. flour. Of course I couldn't wait until they cooled down, so they are still soft and chewy. Don't know if they'll crisp up or not, but at the moment....
M-m-m-m-m- good.

Sorta the same topic, but do Clif bars come in variety packs? They're cheaper by the box but all the same flavour?

Here in the Seattle area Costco stores carry a variety pack of Clifs. The business outlet usually carries 2 different variety packs.
They also carry a Harvest Bar variety pack.
I've noticed at REI if you buy a dozen you get a discount that is comparable to Costco and they have a larger variety to chose from.

For an extra treat, save part of the mix and add in booze (Baileys, Kahlua, Choc/White Choc liquer) yummmmm.

Nomad, Jimbo gets a variety box of Clif bars at the Costco in Newton. In fact he just bought some last night. There are 4 different kinds and cost $16.00 for 12 bars.

| After my friend "upgraded" my computer, I can't seem to find some things. Like this recipe. This time I printed it out, just in case. These tasted so good, I'm going to include them in my brunch tomorrow. |
