Kyle and Alex try to put on some winter weight on by test driving trail treats. Tune in for easy recipes and hidden gems at your local grocer. Hudson Bay Bread 3/4 lb. softened butter 2 cups sugar 1/3 cup light Karo syrup 1/3 cup honey 1 tsp maple flavoring 3/4 cup ground nuts (walnuts) 9 cups Quaker 1-minute oats Cream together all the ingredients except the nuts and oats, in a large mixing bowl. Once it is all blended, stir in the oats and nuts. Make sure it is well mixed. Spread the mixture onto a cookie sheet with at least a 1/2 inch high lip. Press the mixture down and pack it in until it fills the pan and is a smidge less than 1/2 inch thick. You'll probably need a second sheet. Bake at 325 degrees for 15 minutes. Remove and press down with a spatula to prevent crumbling when it cools. (If you bake it too long, it gets hard and crunchy like a granola bar.) While it is still warm, cut into 3 inch squares. No Bake Energy Bites Mix everything, roll in to balls, refrigerate. EASY 1 cup old-fashioned oats 2/3 cup toasted shredded coconut (sweetened or unsweetened) 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter 1/2 cup ground flaxseed 1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips (or vegan chocolate chips) 1/3 cup honey 1 tablespoon chia seeds (optional) 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
