Breakfast Cookie Bars

2 cups oats

1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour

1 cup apple juice

1/4 cup wheat germ

1 cup dried fruit packed and chopped

3/4 teaspoon cinnamon

6 Tablespoons brown sugar

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup fat substitute (see instructions)

Preheat oven to 375. Spray 9x13 (or a little smaller) pan with Pam. Mix all ingredients, pat thinly on bottom of pan, sprinkle with extra cinnamon and bake for 30 minutes. WAIT TO COOL before removing or they will crumble. For a fat substitute we have used 1/2 cup of frozen cranberries thawed in a little water with a bit of sugar, mashed bannanas, mashed berries, you could even puree a few pears in some sauce. Be creative!
