Sweet potatoes and white beans are not typical breakfast bar ingredients. Most recipes call for sugar and butter to create a classic breakfast bar texture. This recipe changes things up by using Randall Great Northern Beans and baked sweet potatoes to give you an even more delicious—and healthy!—alternative to traditional breakfast bars. Grab a glass of milk, a cup of coffee, or a cup of tea, and enjoy!

• ⅔ cup of all-purpose flour
