As a Pinterest lover, I’m always looking for new ways to make delicious treats for my family. Lately I’ve been pinning recipes for homemade granola bars. After some research and trial and error I’ve come up with a yummy recipe.
In a large bowl, combine your oats, cereal, and flax. Stir with a large spoon until well combined. Set aside.
Place sugar, honey, oil, and salt in a sauce pan over medium heat. Bring it to a boil. Stirring the whole time, boil for exactly 1 minute so mixture combines and sugars dissolve.
Take pot off the heat and add in the peanut butter and vanilla. Stir until smooth.
Pour mixture over your dry mixture. Stir until well combined.
Let mixture sit for about 5-8 minutes.
Meanwhile, place a large sheet of parchment paper on a cookie sheet.
Pour mixture onto cookie sheet. Press with a second cookie sheet so it is flat.
Then immediately spread your chocolate chips on the top and press again.
Once the bars have cooled completely, slide parchment paper onto your counter.
Cut into bars.
Wrap individually for easy freezer storage.
Enjoy!
