These granola bars are not only delicious and filling, but they also provide your body with fiber and protein. They are the perfect item to pack in lunches for school, work, hiking, or camping. They also make a great snack or meal—you can eat one for breakfast with a little yogurt and fruit.
The best thing about granola bars is that they are highly customizable. If you don’t have all of these ingredients, just substitute with whatever you have on hand. Keep the wet ingredients and oats the same (you can leave out the maple syrup if desired), and mix up the other dry ingredients all you want. You’ll need roughly 3 cups of dry ingredients.
Some dry ingredients that are great to substitute in are flax seed, peanuts, cashews, any dried fruit, coconut flakes (toasted or plain), chocolate chips, nutmeg, etc.
Make sure to use parchment paper in the baking dish because it makes pulling out the granola bars very easy. They also stay together much better if you let them cool as a block before cutting them.
Servings: 12–14 | Time: 10–15 minutes active; 1 hour inactive | Difficulty: Easy
NOTE: These bars will keep longer if stored in an air–tight container or bag in the fridge or freezer.
