Another winner, Stephanie! My two, adult sons are hikers, campers, etc., will love these bars! Jam packed with wholesome ingredients they can be tossed into backpacks, for a delicious, nutritious, snack. Great for busy mom's and" busy" little ones, too! Thank you for sharing.

Delicious, thank you Stephanie. I used coconut instead of the choc chips. Just a hint for anyone making these - be sure to really press it down into the pan prior to baking, otherwise it will be very crumbly when you cut them. I'll be making these again!

These bars are fantastic. I made them for the first time tonight and was very pleased with the result. Never buying store bought fruit bars again. Thanks Stephanie!

I tried the recipe and improvised with what i have in the fridge. I used walnut, almond slices, almond meal, cashew, oatmeal, raisins, cranberries, dates and the outcome was pretty good. Then I broke some of them into big chunks, melted some chocolate, mixed them together, spread on oven paper, put into the fridge to set and cut them into bite size. It was amazing! Thank you so much for sharing this recipe :)

absolutely love this recipe. Thank you so much Stephanie

Hi Stephanie!. Just let you know that I love your videos. Specially when you leave the extremely politeness on one side heheehe I can picture your real side and is refreshing!. And also cause your recipes at not the typical american style super sweet and with tons of butter or fondant which I hate. Many thanks!! Keep it up!

Hi Stephanie thank you so much for the videos. I love how you present your recipes. Your instructions are clear and concise. You showed the end result of each process for example the beating of the egg. Its visual and for an amateur baker it is very important. Not many instructors do that. You don't rush through the process and it made it so much easier to follow you. I have been following your videos for cookies and quick breads. I love it. my family loves my finished product too. Once again thank you. You seem to make people happy with your videos. Really a joy in baking. Warmest regards Zunaida from Singapore

These bars turned out to be very delicious!!!A great recipe again from joy of baking.I can't thank you enough Stephanie.I refer only your recipes when I want to bake. Keep inspiring...you are doing a great job!!

Can't wait to try these ! Love your new kitchen

These are super. Have made them four times and they are always so good!!! Great job

Thank you so much for using the metric system as well!!!

Wonderful demonstration. I made them, still warm, but delicious. Thank you very much, really a joy of baking. Best regards from Accra, Ghana, West Africa.

I just baked this. It turned out fantastic!! Thank you for sharing another great recipe!

It’s so delicious 😋 thank you so much 🌹❤️

I LOVE fruit and nut bars but they're usually loaded with oil and/or butter so this is perfect. Thank you!!

I always enjoy watching and learning " How To " prepare anything from your kitchen Thank you for sharing " The Joy of Baking " for everyone who wants to improve their Baking Skills. On the is video I noticed your kitchen looks brighter and more cheerful, also you hair Cut and style more youthful . Please keep up the great work you do.

I made these for the kids since they're on spring break and I know they're gonna want something to snack on. They're very delicious. I used prunes, dates, craisins, almonds, and pecans. I definitely have to make these again because I'm going to end up eating the entire thing by myself.

Stephanie, your fruit and nut bars look delicious! Thanks for sharing!

Omgosh... you are making me so hungry!! Thanks for sharing your recipe.... Linda

You taught me a lot of baking Stefanie. Thank you so much and God bless! And, your website is amazing.. The measurements of the ingredients are given in US and metric which is great for me.. Thank you again!

I made these bars today and very delicious.Thanks for the recipe

Made this today and oh it was chewy, not too sweet, just perfect as usual with all your recipes. Thank you!!

I have baked these bars many times and they are great! I enjoy Brazil nuts and almonds and pecans or walnuts for the nuts but try other varieties, too, and feel they don't need to be preroasted as they are baked 35 or 40 minutes. They are wholesome, delicious and not loaded with sugar! Thank you for sharing this and other good videos!

Tky for sharing looks so good . Can’t wait to try it !!

I am so making these.... Thanks for sharing

Mmmm yummy, thanks Joy. Gonna try it soon God willing

Great tips! Thank you!

I will try this new recipe.(before i go for school for baking cake , desserts,) but here in you tube its free..thank you joyofbaking.com i really appreciate.

I just made this about an hour and a half ago, they’re cool and cut up now, and delicious. Kiddo, and husband approved. I don’t know how long they’ll last. I guess I’ll have to make more. The only changes I made, were upping the baking soda to 1/4 teaspoon, and using half a teaspoon of vanilla powder, because I did not have extract. Additionally, I added an additional egg, because the mixture seemed impossibly dry without the liquid from another egg. It was the right call, the bars were perfect, I changed nothing else, I used peanuts for the base nut, next time I’ll try walnuts, or maybe almonds and pecans. Yum. Thank you so much for this recipe. It reminds me of recipes from vegetarian cookbooks from about 100 years ago, take a look, you might be surprised. Happy baking.

Wow this recipe is super easy to make...thanks.

can't wait to try this recipe!

Thanks for sharing, will try it out,

Yum!!! Thanks for sharing!

I made these tonight. Delicious! my nuts of choice were hazel, walnuts and pecans. My fruits dried cherried, dried blueberries, candied orange peel, medjool dates, milk chocolate chips dark brown sugar. They came perfect. Great recipe. Thank you. 🥰

Love your recipes you are my inspiration ❤️

Love your tip for the foil.

Great recipe love you joy

I made these bars today. However, I used only nuts as I needed to use them all up before they expire. And I tweaked the recipe a little further by switching the flour with Oat meal (which I blended till fine) and sprinkled toasted sesame seed on the top, and used dark chocolate chips. The texture was right, but it wasn't sweet at all. Because it's all-nut bars, I should have increased the sugar in the recipe. And maybe use milk chocolate chips for extra sweetness. Without the dried fruits the amount of sugar in current recipe is insufficient. The solution is to drizzle caramel sauce or icing sugar before serving. Other than these observations, it was so easy to make these bars. I'll make them again definitely. Thanks Stephanie for this easy bake recipe.

Great love this one.

This is an amazing recipe! They look so professional 😍 They are 10× better than the ones you can buy. Thank you so much ❤️

What a great tip with the aluminum foil, shaping around the outside of the pan. I'll DEFINITELY be using THAT one... THANKS! :) These bars look sooo yummyyyy

Thank you. You are a very good teacher

Looks like a great recipe which will never bore the family, as the variations are endless. The little intro and final out in nature really livens the video, which would be excellent even without! Cute dog. - And your skirt is simply chic! Greetings from Scandinavia

Thanks for the recipe! Looks great and I can't wait to try it. Also, its beautiful where you live! No wonder you seem like such a joy not just your baking :-)

I will have to try these for school lunches substituting the nuts for seeds. They look delicious 😄

It is my second time to make this easy and brilliant recipe. This time I have added coconut shreds and various other nuts and fruits. I made it for my hubby (for me too) as he buys the manufactured ones that are not healthy, greasy and very sugary. He loves these squares (me too, lol). Bloody love this recipe in fact I love your entire website and approach to baking. If I need a baking recipe; you are always my first port of call. Thanks Stephanie.

Your dog is adorable

Thank you I will definitely make some .. 🙏😊

Yummy.....Will make.....Thank you

Thank you for sharing I will try my first time th that I watch you video 😊

💝 love that

Thank you!

I have a food forest in my back yard and started making fruit/ nut bars. But i grind my berries up to a slurry( the process removes seeds and stems too) and roast/flour almonds and hazelnuts. I mix it all together and it looks like cookie dough. I bake then dehydrate the bars and it gets pretty solid. I haven't tried the large chunk stuff yet. The mix i make is hazelnuts/almonds, with Currents, honeyberries, seaberries, black raspberries, mostly. But i have a few other things i add in. Sometimes apple/pears.

Its easy to watch your video i dont think i can make it..the fruits and nut bars.but love it. All ur video i is good .i do fruit cake last dec.2014.

These would be great as energy bars on my cycle rides will definitely be making these.

Wonderful fruits n nuts bar !!

just tried this & it was delish! i added some granola too. Thanks!

Dear Stephanie - I have been following ur excellent videos & recipes for a quite some time, which have helped me immensely become a good baker :) I had a thought to share, Baking isn't just abt sweet dishes - but there is a whole world of Salty dishes out there which are also baked.. It would be so great if you could start doing different/salty dishes as I would love to learn those as well from you :) Thank u and wish u all the best ~

Lol , checking youtube for days to find a normal recipe 4 these bars yet all i found was gluten , egg , etc free untill this night . Thx for sharing ! I m gonna try these , by the sight of it they are already a little bit like those grany bars , more like cakes or very soft chewy cookie bars mmmmm

The bars look Great, might b really tasty due to the fruits n variety of nuts, cant wait to make them. ❤ 🇮🇳

Yum!

After watching your amazing videos I looked into getting a stand mixer and found that the Kenwood you use is the best. For my birthday my husband surprised me with a gift certificate to choose the mixer I wanted. I had enough birthday money to get the Kenwood Chef XL and absolutely love it. Thank you for answering question about your mixer. Well worth every penny and it's getting alot of use. Can't use the mixer on this recipe for fruit and nut bars but will make this for my grandson's snack in his lunch. This is the kind of food kids should be eating and I love these too. Thank you.

Hi Stephanie I just made these today, it is so delicious. Just wonder if I can add more almond flour on this recipe?? Just because I love almond!! By the way love your videos so much. Thank you. Love you from Italy 💕

Thanks for the post ma'am it's amazingly delicious and heavenly attractive medical student Malaysia God bless.😋👍✌

Hi Stephanie, thank you so much. I am going to bake soon for my colleagues in the office. And after Christmas we all watch a bit, what we enjoy. This is perfect. All the best in 2020

Love all the new recipe I have learned thanks every body for sharing

Thank you ! :)

Yum

My hubby likes to go cycling every sunday morning ... this could be a good snack for on the road. Thank you Stephanie for sharing this recipe with us. Saskia x

Thanks, this is a very nice recipe. I changed it to make it more diabetic friendly, and it worked very well.. i do not use aluminium foil though, it has too many health risks, but replaced it with wax paper. It does the same job. Thanks

these are like granola bars！ love it!

Hi Stephanie, Can I skip the sugar completely or reduce the quantity as the dried fruits will be sweet? And use whole wheat flour instead of all purpose flour?

Good

Hi Stephanie thank you for super easy and delicious fruit and nut bar recipe. Can I substitute egg for something else.I added sesame seeds, coconut, pumpkin seeds,and sun flower seeds and added 1/4 teasp salt and it was delicious. Thanks again.

“I can’t trust people anymore, ya know? I’ve been dealing with nut bars all day long.” - Chuck Greene (2010)

Can you ship it to me? Id like to try a piece ;p they look really helthy. Love it

Hi Joy! Thanks for the recipe😘👍🏻 My family loves these bars - what size pan should i use if i double the recipe? 9x13 pan? And baking time still be the same between 35-40min? Thanks

Oh wow, this is an old video .. but I have been thinking about making something like this! I am tired of buying the boxed ones .. wrapped in foil/plastic .. so much garbage for six bars. Thank you so much Stephanie.

Hello!! i love your recipes.. thank you soo much.. can i replace egg with any other ingredient??

i tried with hazelnut butter and cocoa powder and became awesome

HI, I love your channel and i watch your recipe over and over again. I had a question, can we omit the baking soda in this recipe.

What is the baking oven temperature for this nutty bar please?

Yes Yes Yes!

Looks wonderful. I love that you include metric weights in the ingredients because I always use a scale when I bake. This reminds me a little of a fruit cake. I wonder if soaking the bars with a drizzle of something alcoholic would make them an adult dessert? Or are they best left as is?
