homemade granola breakfast bars

Ingredients:

2 1/2 cups rolled oats (not instant)
1 cup sunflower seeds
1 cup chopped nuts
2 cups dried cranberries or raisins
1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk

Directions:

Preheat oven to 250F.

Line a 9×11 baking dish with parchment paper.

In a large bowl, mix rolled oats, sunflower seeds, nuts and dried cranberries.  Add sweetened condensed milk and mix with your hands until combined (yes, your hands will be very sticky).

Put the mixture in the baking dish, spread it evenly and press on top with your hands – make the top as smooth as possible.

Bake for 1 hour.  Remove from the oven, let cool for 15 minutes and slice into bars.  Let cool for another hour.

    To keep the granola bars from sticking, line the bottom of the baking dish with parchment paper.
