Camping Bars Recipe

Ingredients

• cup all-purpose flour
• cup quick cooking oats
• cup toasted wheat germ
• cup butter, softened
• 1 tablespoon orange zest
• cup packed brown sugar
• 2 large eggs
• cup blanched whole almonds
• cup shredded coconut

Directions

Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350F (175C). Prepare an 8x8-inch baking pan by lightly greasing it or lining with parchment paper.

Step 2: In a large mixing bowl, beat together the flour, oats, butter, wheat germ, orange zest, and cup of packed brown sugar on low speed until the mixture is just combined.

Step 3: Increase the speed to medium and continue beating for 2 minutes. The mixture should look somewhat dry but cohesive.

Step 4: Using lightly floured hands, shape the dough into a ball. Press it evenly into the prepared 8x8-inch baking pan.

Step 5: In a small bowl, beat the eggs together with the remaining cup of packed brown sugar. Stir in the almonds and shredded coconut.

Step 6: Pour the egg mixture evenly over the dough in the baking pan.

Step 7: Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 8: Allow the bars to cool in the pan on a wire rack. Once cooled, cut them into 12 pieces and serve.
