Homemade Granola Bars

 

 

 

Ingredients: 

 

2 Cups Old Fashion Oats (uncooked)

1/2 Cup Nuts & dried Fruit (your choice)

I used Cranberries & Pepitas. (pumpkin seed)

1/3 Cup Cocoa nibs (optional)

2 tsp Cinnamon

1 pinch of salt

1/3 Cup Coconut oil

1/3 Cup Honey

1 TBSP Vanilla extract

3/4 Cup Almond butter

 

 



Directions:

 

In a bowl mix Oats, Fruit, nuts, cocoa nibs, cinnamon & salt. Set to the side.

 

In a pot combine Coconut oil, honey, vanilla & almond butter.

 

Turn heat on low and warm till its combined. Don't boil.

Once its all melted mix with dry ingredients.  Press into a greased pan.  I used a 8x8 baking pan. Freeze 2 hours then cut into bars.  I wrap each bar in foil paper and put back in the freezer until serving. It takes a few minutes at room temperature to thaw.  I wouldn't recommend leaving them out for a long time, just because they get soft and fall apart. 

 

This is one of my favorite snacks!!  My kids love them too!! Enjoy!
