Like all the recipes here, it works - but my enthusiasm stems from the absolutely perfect combination. <BR/><BR/>Thanks sooo much.

I think I always associated the bars with the packaged ones, which were never a favourite. These babies have turned me around. Thanks for the compliment, and for stopping by.<BR/><BR/>Andrea, these do in fact make fantastic travel food. Half my batch was packed, to be tucked in to carry on luggage yesterday!tarahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05149211392724447966noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11966366.post-72693093386787380802008-10-08T10:09:00.000-04:002008-10-08T10:09:00.000-04:00Wow, busy times! These are probably a great energy boost. You should pack some for your friend to take along on his/her trip! These would be the perfect travel food. Although it sounds like you don't have an extra moment to spare.Andreahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08402921195094964887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11966366.post-86929543196118470082008-10-08T08:27:00.000-04:002008-10-08T08:27:00.000-04:00Dana, I should admit that some Häagen Dasz <I>may</I> have been eaten as well. For medicinal reasons, of course. <BR/><BR/>Fiber, these are great to stash in your bag as a snack; the crispy ones pack exceptionally well, and I love knowing that I have a snack at hand for me - or one of my boys!<BR/><BR/>Brittany, golden syrup is another byproduct of the sugar refung process - and yes, Lye is a brand! It has a rich sweetness, with the consistency of corn syrup. I will add a note to the recipe, but I wanted to let you know that the golden syrup is optional. I like it as it adds a complexity to the sweetness of the bars, but you can simply use all honey OR use the same amount of something like maple syrup.tarahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05149211392724447966noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11966366.post-15610639759139531852008-10-08T08:24:00.000-04:002008-10-08T08:24:00.000-04:00I love making granola bars.

Question: golden syrup? I don't think I've seen that here in Seattle, unless it goes by a different name. Is it that Lyles stuff? (Not even sure if thats the correst name- I've just heard of it as being a British product-??)Brittanyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01964356151167396230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11966366.post-44629743745524956792008-10-07T21:52:00.000-04:002008-10-07T21:52:00.000-04:00These look absolutely fantastic and like the perfect thing to grab on the way out the door in the morning.Fiberhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16869845035804289989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11966366.post-59548889384819668652008-10-07T07:13:00.000-04:002008-10-07T07:13:00.000-04:00With all that going on, I'd likely succumb to oreos.
