Easy Gluten Free Granola Bars - cooking recipe

Ingredients

3 cups quinoa
1 cup nuts, chopped
1 cup raisins
1 cup sunflower seeds
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 (400 ml) can low fat sweetened condensed milk

Preparation

Line a 15x10 inch (38x25cm) pan with parchment paper.
Combine quinoa flakes, nuts, raisins, seeds, chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk. Chopped apricots or cranberries can be used instead of raisins.
Mix well either in a stand mixer or you can roll up your sleeves and mix by hand - literally.
Transfer to parchment-lined pan. Put another piece of parchment paper over the top and compress as well as possible with the back of a spoon, hands or a handle-less rolling pin.
Bake in a preheated 325 degree F. (160 C) oven for 25 to 30 minutes or until golden brown.
Cool completely then chill, overnight is best. Cut into bars. Store in an airtight container, can be frozen.
