Yields 8 bars with about 275 - 300 calories each with a nice blend of carbs, protien, and fat... the honey will give you instant energy while the oats and peanut butter will provide an excellent source of sustained energy.
Cost is .50 - .75 per bar and you can tweak them to your liking... you can use half a cup of maple syrup with half a cup of honey, almond butter instead of peanut butter, and can change up that extra cup by adding any supplements you feel you need.
I prefer to keep mine raw and not add anything but natural ingredients... roasted almonds and sunflower seeds really add to the flavour.
I wonder what that would taste like with a little nutella thrown in!
