How to Make Granola Bars at Home (Healthy + Simple)
Ingredients
- Oats3 cups
- Almond1 cup
- Peanut½ cups
- Cranberry · dried½ cups
- Coconut · shredded2 tbsp
- Salt¼ tsp
- Honey½ cups + 1 tbsp
- Coconut oil⅓ cups
- Peanut butter3 tbsp
- Vanilla1 tsp
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 170°C (340°F) and line an 11 × 7 inch (28 × 18 cm) or 9 × 9 inch (23 × 23 cm) baking pan with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, combine the oats, almonds, peanuts, dried fruit, coconut (if using) and salt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the honey (or other sweetener), melted coconut oil, peanut butter and vanilla until smooth.
- Pour the wet mixture over the dry ingredients and stir until everything is evenly coated.
- Transfer to the pan and press down very firmly with the back of a spoon or a measuring cup.
- Bake for 25–30 minutes, until golden brown around the edges. Bake for less time for chewier bars and a little longer for crunchier bars.
- Cool completely in the pan for at least 1–2 hours, ideally in the fridge, then lift out using the parchment and slice into 12–16 bars with a sharp knife.
