Directions

1

Preheat oven to 350.

Mix all dry ingredients together.

Add peanut butter, honey, and vanilla - mix well. (I used my mixer - it's pretty dense).
4

Grease a 13x9 baking pan - spread mixture into pan (should be about an inch thick).
5

Bake for 15-20 minutes.
6

Cool and cut into squares. I'm going to refrigerate them (in the hopes they will hold together a little better).
