The recipe below has been copied from the momentum website, so all credit goes to them:

I modified the recipe in this way:
>Almond butter in place of peanut butter.
>Added chopped dried Fig in place of banana chips [although both would be good too]
>Organic chocolate [dark - no semi-sweet]
>pinch of allspice
>no coffee in the bars I made for the kids [the adults got a dose of good, dark roast]

=======================================================================================
4 1/2 cups granola
3 cups sesame seeds
1/2 cup finely chopped banana chips
1/2 cup raisins or craisins
1/2 cup chocolate chips
1 tbsp finely ground coffee beans
1/2 tsp cinnamon
2 cans (600 ml) sweetened condensed milk
1 cup peanut butter
1 tbsp honey


Mix all dry ingredients in a large bowl. Mix wet ingredients in a separate bowl, or just add them to the dry and mix. Butter up an 11" X 17" pan and spread contents into the pan. Make sure the mix is pressed well into the pan. Cook at 300? F for 20 minutes. When mix is totally cooled, cut it into bars. You can wrap them individually in wax paper or put in a container and store them in the freezer and they'll make great snacks for future trips.
