Recipe Introduction

This recipe is TNT (tried and true).

List of Ingredients

1/4 cup margarine
1 cup LIGHT brown sugar, (packed)
1 egg, lightly beaten
3/4 cup flax seed meal
1 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. vanilla
1/2 cup coarsely chopped walnuts (we actually used pecans this time)



Recipe

Heat oven to 350 Melt margarine over low heat (watch carefully, can burn very easily).

Remove from heat; stir in light brown sugar until lightly blended; cool.

Stir in the egg. Stir (presifted & measured) 3/4 cup flour, baking powder, and salt together blend in.

Lastly, mix in the vanilla. ("This can all be done in a big pot or bowl to make cleanup easier")

Spread into well greased 8 x 8 x 2 baking pan.

Sprinkle chopped nuts on top.

Bake 25 minutes. DO NOT OVERBAKE!

Cut in bars while warm.

Makes 18 bars about 2 1/2" by 1".
