Homemade Chewy Granola Bars
Make these healthy chewy granola bars that actually stay together! Super customizable and a delicious and healthy snack.
Equipment
- 1 food processor for pulsing oats... can use oat flour
- 1 sauce pot
- 1 Bowl
- 1 8x8 or 9x9 container either size you can use, the 9x9 will just make thinner bars
Ingredients
- 2 cups rolled oats
- 1/4 cup pb2 powder can use protein powder
- 1/2 cup peanut butter
- 1/3 cup honey
- 2 tbsp coconut oil
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips 1/3 cup if using mini chips
Instructions
- Pulse oats and PB2 powder together until oats are fine
- On medium heat, add peanut butter, coconut oil, and honey. Cook down until all is dissolved
- Mix dry ingredients and wet ingredients together in a bowl.
- After letting the mixture cool a few minutes add chocolate chips (if not adding chocolate you can mix other toppings right away)
- Pour into a lined 8x8 dish with parchment paper and then press down evenly
- Let it sit in refrigerator for 2 hours
- Cut into bars and store in fridge for up to a week.
Notes
The mixture will seem small and compact, but I promise it will spread out! Use the bottom of a measuring cup to press down if needed. I like to top the mixture with chocolate chips as well!
