Rickety Uncle

Ingredients

• 1 cup butter
• 1 cup brown sugar
• 1/2 cup honey
• 4 cups rolled oats
• 1/2 cup dried fruit, seeds, nuts, or coconut (optional)
• 2 tsp vanilla extract
• 1/2 tsp cinnamon

Preparation

1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a 9x12 or 9”x13” pan lined with parchment paper with some overhand to life the bars out with.
2. Heat butter in microwave until just melted in heat-safe bowl. Add in brown sugar, vanilla, honey and cinnamon. Add in nuts or fruit at this point if desired. Mix this well.
3. Add oats to a large bowl. Pour wet ingredients over the top and mix well. Pour into pan and press down flat so that the oat mixture is the same thickness throughout.
4. Bake for 25-30 minutes. Allow to cool for 10 minutes before lifting the bars from the pan. While still warm cut into 2” square bars. Do not allow to cool completely before cutting or else bars will be more difficult to cut.
