I found this recipe in Living Cuisine by Renee Lou Underkoffler. It seemed simple and yummy enough, however I found that it took MUCH longer to dry in the dehydrator than the recipe supposed it would. Underkoffler also says to dehydrate at 108 degrees. When that wasn't getting things dried, I bumped it up to 115 and we made progress from there.
Sweet Sesame Bars
2 cups sesame seeds
6 TBS raw honey
2 TBS lemon juice (I used fresh)
pinch dried sea salt
Mix ingredients thoroughly in bowl. The texture should bwe sticky and able to hold a shape when pressed. Using wet hands to prevent sticking, press the mixture into thin bars about 1 1/2 x 3 inches onto nonstick sheets on dehydrator trays. Dehydrate at 108 degrees for 12-20 hours or until quite dry. Flip over the bars to dry the underside and return to the dehydrator without the nontstick sheets for 2-4 hours.
If you didn't care about maintaining the live enzymes in the food, you could probably bake these in the oven on a nonstick pan.
