Ingredients
  

Granola Bar Base
  • 2 cups rolled oats
  • 1 cup mixed nuts chopped
  • 1/4 cup pumpkin seeds
  • 1/2 cup peanut butter or almond butter
  • 1/3 cup maple syrup
  • 2 tbsp coconut oil melted
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup dried fruit optional

Equipment

  • Mixing Bowl
  • Baking Sheet
  • Oven
  • Tray
  • Spatula
  • Pan
  • Container

Method
 

  1. Heat oven to 350°F and line a small baking pan.
  2. Mix oats, nuts, seeds, and dried fruit in a bowl.
  3. Warm nut butter, maple syrup, oil, and vanilla. Stir until smooth.
  4. Pour wet mixture over dry ingredients and stir until coated.
  5. Press firmly into pan for tight texture and clean slicing later.
  6. Bake 12 minutes until edges are golden. Cool fully, then cut bars.

Notes

For softer bars, bake less and add extra syrup. For crispier bars, bake longer and cool completely. Freeze slab 15 minutes before slicing for easier assembly handling. Customize flavor with cinnamon, chocolate chips, coconut, or berries. Store airtight 1 week or freeze 2 months.
