{ CRISP RICE FRUIT BITES }

Thanks, Elna, for sharing this recipe!  (The original recipe is here.)

1 c. almonds
1 c. walnuts
1 c. prunes
1 c. dried fruit*
1/4 c. honey
1 t. vanilla
1 t. cinnamon

1 1/2 c. Barbara's Brown Rice Crisps cereal
  • Place almonds in a food processor and pulse to coarsely chop.
  • Add remaining ingredients except cereal and process until finely chopped, but not pureed.
  • Place in a large bowl and mix in cereal by hand.
  • Using your hands, press firmly into a 3/4-inch thick square on a cutting board.
  • Cut into 1-inch squares.
  • Place squares on parchment paper or lightly greased baking sheet.
  • Bake at 200 for 30 minutes.
  • Allow to cool.
  • Store in an airtight container.
*The original recipe calls for 1-inch pieces of dried mango.  I didn't have mango, so I used dried apples.
