Simple Nutritious Breakfast Bars

I'm always on the lookout for simple breakfast food. And since mornings are busy for me I like to have something that I can easily carry with me. And since Doug doesn't really like to eat breakfast before he leaves the house between 4:30 and 5:30AM it's nice to have something simple to put in his lunchbox for his morning break. So when I found this recipe for Healthy Breakfast Bars I knew I wanted to try them.

The original recipe was a lot smaller and used grams as measurements. So I converted the measurements and tweaked the numbers and then quadrupled the recipe and this is what I came up with.

2 1/2 cups rolled oats

1 1/4 cups dried fruit

3/4 cup sunflower seeds

1/4 cup coconut

1/4 cup wheat germ

4 bananas, mashed

1 14 oz can evaporated milk

1/2 teaspoon salt

Mix together dry ingredients, including dried fruit. Heat evaporated milk for one minute and add to dry ingredients. Mash bananas and mix with other ingredients. Spread in 9x11 cake pan and bake at 320F for 30-35 minutes.  Let cool slightly and then cut into squares with pizza cutter.

Enjoy a healthy and simple snack or breakfast.
