    Pear Apple Coconut Bars

    This was one of those recipes I tried to use up some ingredients in my kitchen.  I made these on a Sunday afternoon, but I imagine they'd be lovely in the morning with a cup of hot coffee.

    Making bar treats is really enjoyable - mainly because they bake up so quickly!  No switching out batches, and the flavor possibilities are endless.

    Despite the amount of sugar in the recipe, I found that these weren't overly sweet.

    Your miles may vary, of course, especially considering the fact that I have a huge sweet tooth!
