Homemade "On the Bike" Energy Drinks and Bars

[violette]

I tried this recipe this weekend using roughly the same proportions (and a combo of honey/ maple syrup instead of the sugars listed). Something went horribly wrong- I ended up with oats floating in sugary butter soup. I had assumed that 250 grams of oats is the same as 250 ml of oats (the metric part doesn't really throw me, but I'm used to measuring things by volume not weight). Anyone have an idea where I went wrong???

I made this last night with a few changes:

2 cups of rolled oats (instant)
1 cup bran
1/2 cup honey
1 cup light peanut butter
1 egg, beaten
1/3 cup of sunflower seeds and raising (more or less)

Pat in a 8" x 8" baking pan. Bake at 350 for 30 min. cut and refrigerate.

I gave a sample to my husband and kids and I had to fight them off. My husband begged me to put some in his lunch...Ha ha!
