Healthy Protein Bars

• 1 cup rolled oats
• 1 cup nonfat dry milk powder
• 1/2 cup wheat bran (not bran cereal)
• 1/2 cup flax seed meal
• 1 cup almond meal
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1/2 teaspoon ginger
• 1 (15 ounce) can white beans, drained & mashed
• 2 eggs, beaten
• 1/4 cup honey
• 1/4 cup water
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
2. Mix dry ingredients.
3. Mix wet ingredients in a separate bowl, or blend in food processor.
4. Stir wet ingredients into dry ingredients.
5. Spread mixture into a 9x13" greased (or non-stick) cake pan. I use a glass pan.
6. Bake for 20 minutes, or until dry to the touch and lightly browned at the edges.
7. Cool and cut into 12 bars. I store them in the frig to keep them fresh.
8. Alternate "orange" version: Replace honey and water with 1/2 cup frozen orange juice concentrate, thawed, and replace cinnamon and ginger with 1 t dried orange peel.
