Homemade "Clif" Bars

These came out not as I expected. I did not have the right size pan (was too big), so they came out a little thinner than I wanted. I will have to double the recipe  next time. They taste delicious though.

Ingredients 

3/4 Cups of gluten-free quick oats or rolled oats 

1/8 Tsp of salt
1 Cup freeze-dried strawberries (You can use freeze-dried raspberries or blueberries)
1/3 Cup of almond butter or nut butter of choice 
1/4 Cup of agave or honey (I used honey)

Directions

1. Line a pan with parchment paper, and set aside
2. In a food processor, process the freeze-dried berries until they are broken up into tiny pieces or powder
3. Stir all dry ingredients together in a bowl, then stir in the nut butter. (Make sure the nut butter is mixable.) 
4. Add in the honey and mix until a sticky dough forms
5. Transfer the mixture to the prepared pan, and smush down evenly into the pan with a second sheet of parchment paper
6. Freeze the pan for an hour, then cut into bars 
7. Store in the refrigerator for a few days or freeze them
