Go-Figure Bars "Cliff"

Go-Figure Bars "Homemade Cliff"
This is a Secret Recipe.....not any more. I will post picture soon.
1 1/4 Cups puffed brown rice cereal (rough chopped)
1 cup uncooked Raw Oatmeal. (rough chopped)
2 Tablespoon Freshly ground flaxseed meal.
2 Tablespoon Freshly ground chiaseed meal.
1/4 Cup finely chopped nuts or seeds (I used sunflower and sesame seed)
2 Tablespoon Hemp nut. (not ground)
1/2 cup popped Amaranth. (remember super easy, check out recipe on this blog)
1/2 cup dried fruit. (like currants, Raisans, Dates, dried blueberrries, cranberries, bananas etc.)
2 Tablespoon Stevia (or Truvia)
Mix all above in bowl
Get a Sauce Pan Very Hot. Nothing in it.
Turn off heat add in:
1/2 cup Natural Peanut Butter or Nut butter.
1/3 cup Brown Rice Syrup
1/4 cup Agave
Let this combination warm up while stiring.
Pour warm mixture over cereal mixture, until coated.
This is when I will add in
1/2 cup of Mini-Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips. Make sure mixed as cooled a little so the chips don't melt
Add small amounts of water...1 Tablespoon at a time if needed.

Press firmly into a 8 inch cookie sheet. I use a little roller to get it nice and flat.(1/2 inch)
Chill for 30 min to help it set.
You can wrap up bars or just eat them.

Now if you don't have the chia, flax, and Hemp that is ok. They are to boast up the nutrition. I would encourage you to get them.
Also I use a Magic bullet to chop and powder. I use the flat blade. It works on the oatmeal, puffed rice, seeds, flaxseed and chia. It will also work on nuts.

This recipe can have a million variations. You could add in cocoa pwd, carob pwd,  carob chips, honey(in place of brown rice syrup), nuts, molassas, cherries, dried apples, cinnamon, vanilla, orange oil, almond butter, almond extract etc etc.  It is also very fast to make because there is no cooking.
If you need help finding ingredients, then comment and I will let you know.
