Nutty Rice Breakfast Bars

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Nutty Rice Breakfast Bars.

1. Step 1

   Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 375°F (190°C) and give an 8-inch pie pan a light spritz of cooking spray to ensure your creation comes out easily.

2. Step 2

   Next, grab a saucepan and bring some water along with brown rice to a lively boil.

3. Step 3

   Once it’s bubbling away, lower the heat to medium-low, cover it up, and let it simmer for about 45 to 50 minutes, or until the rice is tender and has absorbed all the liquid.

4. Step 4

   While that’s cooking, take a mixing bowl and combine creamy peanut butter, sweet applesauce, sticky honey, and a fresh egg.

5. Step 5

   Mix these ingredients together until you have a smooth and delightful blend.

6. Step 6

   Now, it’s time to add the star players: the cooked brown rice, garbanzo bean flour, rolled oats, dried currants, chopped coconut, sunflower seeds, chia seeds, baking powder, and a sprinkle of ground cinnamon.

7. Step 7

   Stir everything together until it’s all well combined and you can see the beautiful colors and textures coming together.

8. Step 8

   Once your mixture is ready, spread it evenly in the prepared pie pan, making sure it’s nice and level.

9. Step 9

   Pop it into your preheated oven and let it bake for about 20 minutes, or until the edges turn a lovely golden brown.
