I made this today for a class party for my son who has a gluten free child in the class. It's similar to the granola bar recipe I use so I changed it a bit to use those amounts since other reviews said they weren't sticking together. I used 1/2 cup honey and 1/2 cup brown sugar. I made sure to let them come to a boil and boil for 30-60 seconds. I also used my hands to press them very firmly into an 11x7 pan. They cut great and stayed together really well.

These are by far a favorite in our house! I only wish I had found this recipe sooner. I noticed that some were saying that they had a hard time getting the mix to stick together, I found that if you mix them in a 9x13 pan instead of a deeper bowl the whole mixture was coated well...REALLY well! Hope that helps.

They taste great, but they don't stick together. If you aren't opposed to just picking at it with your fingers (which I am not), this is a good recipe.
