Ryan and I have been trying recipes that we have found on many other blogs. You wouldn't believe how many bloggers include a gluten free section in their blogs. One of our favorite blogs to find recipes on is fANNEtastic food. The blogger, Anne P., has shared some great gluten free recipes that I have enjoyed making.
Monday, I made Anne's 5 Minute No Bake Peanut Butter Granola Bars with a few changes since I did not have all of the called for ingredients. I used just 1/4 cup of honey and 1 table spoon butter in place of the brown rice syrup. The bars did not stick together for me which may have been caused by my substituation. Other than the crumbliness of the bars, they were delicious. In fact, Ryan and I ate them in less than 48 hours...oops.
We decided to make more on Wednesday but we wanted to try something different to see if the granola would stick together better. Again I added 1/4 cup honey in place of the brown rice syrup but I also added 3 tbs butter and 1.5 oz unsweetened bakers chocolate. Also, instead of storing the bars in the refrigerator, I have placed them in the freezer. The bars are still crumbly but they are holding together better today than my attempt on Monday. I think they are great as a frozen treat. I think I will try Anne's recipe exactly as it is written next time. I hope you all give Anne's recipe a try because it was delicious! :) Enjoy!
